Isn’t she beautiful!
It’s been an incredible, overwhelming and most of all emotional day here in Holly Springs! All over the world our friends are receiving the first photos of their adopted children and today it was our turn! Savannah is beautiful! We started the day at 6:00 am as normal, but the following hours were anything but normal! Ann Marie sat by the window for 3 hours waiting for the package to arrive and as if planned, it arrived at 10:25 am, 5 minutes before the deadline for FedEx! We were the last stop on the route! Can you believe it? After a frenzied set of photos with our awesome delivery guy Chris we tore into the house to open the new arrival! In front of the camera the emotions flowed and our lives were completed.
Savannah is a little over 8 months old now and she has hair (sorry about the haircut Savannah)! Her medical information looks good and she is said to be gaining weight, adding teeth, is very attentive, and shows great affection. And best of all she is a DEEP SLEEPER! We are so pleased with the advancement of her vital statistics and cannot wait to get her home!
Savannah is a “Southern Beach Baby” as her orphanage was located on the Southern coast of the Guangdong Province just off the South China Sea, so she should fit in quite well in the Kennedy household!
Well, we are off to make copies of photos for family and friends and to complete the paperwork to officially make Savannah our daughter. Today has started a new chapter in our life together and it has been a true gift. Look for more updates to come, its time to celebrate!
We love you Savannah! Mom & Dad
Thanks for the balloons Chris, Heidi & Chloe! What a surprise!
