We got a video today of our agent's last visit with Carrie (same visit as pictures posted below taken May 18). We weren't expecting it, so it was a great surprise! In the video, she did attempt to squeak out one smile :)
Oh, and she said "Ma"!!! Her foster mother said that she says, "Mama", "Papa" and "Nene". It was so exciting to hear her voice! I wonder what else she'll be saying soon.
We have no other real news.... but I'm dying for someone to translate this video for me! My niece's fiance was so good to translate a short clip that had been emailed to me; considering they're getting married in a week I don't think I should bug him with this. There's a Spanish school down the street from us; I may stop in there and see if someone can help me. I will let you know what else I learn!

Snowy Fun 2009
Hello!
This blog began as a way to keep family and friends up to speed on our journey to our precious daughter, Carrine Renee. She's been home well over a year now and is very much "one of us"! We will keep the blog going, however, so that we have a way to document some of our family life and to keep special people included in it!! Like you :)) Thanks for stopping by! Come again!!
First Snow!

NICE! We knew she was a genius already, but saying words at her age, wow!
What a great surprise, can't wait to see it!
Laura- my sister's best friend is fluent (born in Spain) and my good friend is Colombian and definitely fluent as well. Send me the link- or whatever it is they'd need- and I'll be sure to get info. ASAP to you!!
