Today also marks 5 months since we first held Emily in our arms!! I can also remember that day like it was yesterday. She has changed SO much in just 5 months, it's really unbelievable. We get so many laughs, smiles, and giggles out of her now, especially Brady. She LOVES her big brother and wants to do EVERYTHING he does...and most of the time she does!!! LOL. I can only imagine all the good things ahead of us!
As for today's "major breakthrough"......Brady, Emily and I were in the car on the way to the grocery store and Brady and I had the following conversation:
Brady: "Mommy, I love Emily! Can we keep her?"
Me: "Of course we can, she's your baby sister"
Brady: "I'm gonna love her everyday in my heart and kiss her and hug her and kiss her and hug her and kiss her and hug her everyday!!!"
This brings tears to my eyes and is MUCH better than what he said on day 25 of having Emily home, which was: "Mommy, PLEASE take her back to Taiwan". LOL

Happy Referral Anniversary. I cannot believe how big Brady is getting! Unbelievable! And Emily is just too precious - I adore her chubby cheeks :-)
