It's a girl

I know this is going to sound crazy but we accepted an emergency placement this weekend for a five month old girl. Someone from our foster support group had told us about one of the local churches giving away clothing so we went in search of kids clothes. Mark thought I was simply getting clothes for Alex but I wanted to get a variety because we never know what age group we may get. As I was folding the clothes to put them away I mentioned to Mark that I really wanted a girl, a couple hours later we got one! It was definitely overwhelming at first to think of having a twin type of situation but it has worked out really well. So, we have welcomed Chrissy into our family and she is such a sweetheart! She was taken by DHS under traumatic circumstances so there is a no contact order for both parents and that really helps me as I don't have to worry about visitations just yet. All I can say is that my heart is SO full!!! I LOVE having a boy and a girl, they are absolutely adorable together. It definitely keeps us busy and is a lot of work but it's so worth it. I have no idea what will happen to Chrissy but we would love to adopt her too if given the chance. I wish I could post pictures of them together in their car seats as it is too cute. I will try to keep up with posts but as you can imagine I don't get much free time. :)
