Oh Kim I cant believe she is finally with you, this is a truly wonderful day. I am sending you lots of thoughts and prayers that over the next few days Channing's grieving will ease and she will grow more attached to you, but like you say this is a good sign. Thank you so much for sharing your precious first mommy moments.
Channing is beautiful. She is probably so confused, let her grieve. Fenway grieved for days and she was only a year. She will come around. You are doing a great job keep it up. Cherrios worked for Fenway but I am thinking a little chocolate might help Channing come around. Wish there was more I could do or say to help you through this.
Yeah!!!!! Congrats! She's beautiful. ~Carla

Congratulations. She is precious! It is difficult on the children but at the end of two weeks you'll be amazed at her progress. Best wishes to you both. I can't wait to see more pictures of all the smiles - yours and hers!!

Not sure if my first comment came through, I was up bright and early to check you site so I might have still been half asleep. I am so happy that you finally have Channing. Although I understand that the next few days are going to difficult for both of you. I am hoping that all goes as smoothly as it can. Thank you again Kim for sharing these precious moments with us. She is adorable.
Congratulations!! It's great to finally see her with you. She's gorgeous!Hang in there. The first few days will probably be tough. I know it's hard on momma to see her sad but it'll get better.
Channing is so beautiful! Hoping for a quick transition through the grief and into a lifetime of joy together!

Oohh Kim, She is so beautiful. I'm so happy for you. The adjustment will take time, but you will both be okay and you will be in my thoughts.Congratulations Mommy and Daughter!!!
She is STUNNING! Congrats, Kim. Good luck over the next few days!
What a dear little one she is! Continuing to pray that she adjusts quickly. It must be so hard for her, leaving all that she has ever known. Again best wishes to you both and enjoy the diversion and site seeing!
Yay!!! I can't believe that you finally have her in your arms. I'm sure that it is tough, but I see that you did get a smile out of her and I'm sure that's an accomplishment. I pray that the two of you have the time to get to know eachother and that Channing know's how very much she is loved.
Congratulations! She is beautiful!

Congrats Kim!!! You've been waiting for this day for a long time...hope things are going a bit better...we are all thinking about you guys.By the way your posts look great!Can't wait to see more pics of the two of you..hugs
Kim, congratulations on your beautiful daughter. It WILL get better! Just give her a few days. The little yoghurt-like drinks that you can buy at the grocery store (not refrigerated) did wonders for our daughter, she LOVED them (they kind of look like the danimals drinks here in the US)Hang in there!Barb (home with Nina for 1 month already!)
Finally in your arms. Hang in there, our girl also grieved hard but she has also attached very well. It is a good thing though horrible to watch.Sending you hugs and good wishes.
Kim, she is simply beautiful. I'll be praying her grieving will ease and that you'll be able to meet her continued needs. Kate
