Adopting Elizabeth or better yet, Adopting Mommy!

I am adding to this post, not removing the original content. And I'd like to say that it has been a beautiful journey to be Elizabeth's Mom and to be part of her life. I hope Eli, that one day you can go over this blog that I've created for you and that you will cherish our lives together. I'd like to title this blog" Adopting Mommy" instead. You've taken me, accepted me and made me a better person.

Original Post from 2008 when I created this blog: Some of the pics were taken at the foster home where she has lived since she was born. We have received these photos on a monthly basis together with her medical reports.

Adiciono a este parrafo, sin quitar el contenido original escrito en el 2008 cuando inicie este blog. Ha sido una experiencia fundamental en mi vida el ser madre y especialmente, madre de Eli. Y espero que un dia no muy lejano, puedas revisar cada comentario escrito, cada detalle de este blog y te llenes de alegria recordando cada viaje, anecdota, situacion, dia, evento, vividos juntas. Deseo llamar este blog " Adoptando a Mami" porque me has acogido, aceptado y moldeado para ser la persona que hoy soy.

Parrafo original:

Esta es nuestra Eli. Algunas de las
fotos han sido tomadas en la casa de familia donde ha vivido desde que nacio y
que recibimos junto con un reporte mensual medico.

Providence, RI.

The first weekend in April Eli and I joined the upstate, NY crew and visited our niece Kaleigh who attends Brown U. We had a wonderful time with the family and although Eli had a meltdown at the restaurant that evening, she enjoyed seeing her grandma, uncle, aunt and cousins. The car ride was fine, Eli did great and we sang along the way.

Here she is waiting for the family to arrive



She called "papito and mamita" in Bogota many times and talked to them for a while (imaginary calls)





More talking while waiting



Just being cute







And now, let's go to the desk

What is this...

and this...

Nice smile





She enjoys every minute


And here she is looking through the pages of a very nice family album that grandma Joyce put together for her. The album has pics of my handsome and cute husband from when he was born till today. I love the album. It must have taken Joyce quite some time to put it together but she says that she has done the same for her other grandchildren and enjoys doing it.

And here is uncle Barry carrying Eli

At Brown U. with the crew



Having lunch at an Indian restaurant with K. and her boyfriend Henry from Maine.

I've been completely out of the blogging loop since we went to Japan. Now that I'm finally recovering from my prolonged jet lag. I just checked in and can't believe how much Eli has grown and changed! Hope everyone is well.

Take care, Kat,Colin,Sophia and Keenan
