Gotcha Day! January 19, 2010

Filed under: Uncategorized — ethiopiaboundexpats @ 8:01 am

(This is Lana, Lindsay’s sister posting for her while they are in Ethiopia-don’t know when she’ll be able to get back online and post-but wanted to share the news!)

Vera was placed in Lindsay and Shannon’s arms on Sunday, around 3pm in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.  Lindsay says that as cute as she is in pictures, she’s even better in real life.  We’ve only talked briefly, but they were feeding her, and getting used to a baby!  We are all so excited and so happy for Lindsay and Shannon.  Welcome to our family sweet Vera.  We love you!

  5. What a beautiful, precious little one. She looks like my Charlie, especially in the eyes, when Charlie was younger. Congratulations! What an excellent day!
