This is a long way form the 3 lbs 10oz she started out at!! Yeah!
One last thing... If I may ask that you keep the babies in Guatemala and their adoptive families in your thoughts. Right now there are approx 4000 other American adoptive families in this process, and Guatemala is in some disruption at the moment. This should not affect us in bringing Lily home. Our agency has assured us that this is all rumor. Even so, if everyone could just take a minute to remember all of the babies not just in Guatemala but all over the world that are waiting for their forever families. :-)
