April Update from GLA

ADOPTION PROCESS UPDATE: 
I am hoping to exit my current step this week or next week.  The next step is called MOI, which is when Kimberlie will get her Haitian passport. 
 

 Kimberlie has had an excellent month this April.   Although she was once again unwilling to cooperate for photo day, she seems to be a happy and relaxed girl most of the time outside of photos.  She does have a tendency to get fussy and have fits when she does not get her way.  I think her difficulty with photos is because she is simply being stubborn and does not want to do what is being asked of her at the time.  I snapped some various sweet photos of her in her Easter dress when she was on the balcony while other kiddos were getting their photos taken.  She especially enjoyed looking into the mirror to check out the beautiful dress she was wearing.    Kimberlie’s biggest smiles come about when she is in the jolly jumper on the balcony or when she is reading the books and photo book that you sent.  She loves to listen to her recordable book and will page through it 2-3 times when she has it in hand.  She also continues to enjoy time spent rocking and cuddling with her volunteer as well as having a snack in the afternoon when she is playing on the balcony.

Kimberlie is healthy and growing:

Height: 84 cm
Weight: 26 lb 4.5 oz
