Yesterday was a very busy day. We spent all morning at the Civil Affairs office being interviewed by different officials, etc. to finalize the adoption. Maggie is now officially a Gilmartin. Today, Saturday is a free day and we are getting ready to go to a local park to play and get some sunshine. Maggie is doing well overall and in spite of a few meltdowns (wow does this little peanut have a temper), she is adjusting well to her new family. Molly is also doing well except when Maggie has a meltdown, Molly is not very happy. She does not understand that Maggie is trying to tell us something and because this is all new, we have not been able to figure it out at times. All in all, things could not be going any better. We are enjoying our time but know that it will not be too long before we are ready to come home. We have attached some more pictures taken yesterday, a few with Paul and Maggie - what an incredible dad he is, so so so great!!!!!!

How long did it take Molly to get Maggie all dolled up? :) So cute. She looks like her stylist in the picture where she is fixing her dress. So cute!

I couldn't help it, as soon as I started reading and saw the fantastic pictures of your family I started to cry and my 3 boys all got worried about it, then embarrassed for me!
You guys will have the best Xmas ever this year, and from now on.
Stephanie, do you already see a difference in how busy it gets when you go from one to two kiddos?
We wish you a very safe trip back and can't wait to see you all.
All our love and prayers of happiness.
