Kistet is 15 months old today so she's been in my thoughts. I will be able to hold her in one week--well, if she lets me. It may take a few days before she'll warm up to me. I'm trying to fit everything into every bag I'm allowed to take, but it's a lot of organizing, re-organizing, unpacking, packing, taking things out, adding things, etc., etc. One of my friends is giving me a baby shower on Sunday--so nice. I received a ton of great clothes from another friend so I've been going through bags and bags of clothes from 12 months all the way up to 5 years. These girls are going to be in style. It's amazing what choices girls have in style, colors, combinations that boys absolutely lack. My head is spinning after five years of looking at only boys' things. Such a new world! Their room is starting to fill up nicely. The boys are getting ready, too. I heard James tell someone at the doctor's office the other day all about their sisters who were coming from Ethiopia soon. He'll be starting kindergarten right around the time I return so his mind is more occupied with that excitement. They both finished their two weeks of summer swim lessons and did amazingly well.
