We got new pictures last week, plus a weight. She's up to 15 pounds, which is great! She's right on track for her age. And she's catching up to Dylan QUICK! He's only 22 pounds. We also found out today our adoption is moving along, but still no approval. We're hoping for an approval before Christmas, but who knows.
We also got to send her a care package. We sent some scabies medicine, though the newest pictures show some improvement there, a blanket, a couple footed sleepers, some toys, and a few other small things. We had to fit everything in a 12x12 ziploc bag. It was STUFFED, but we got it.
Dylan is not doing too well health-wise. He has strep for the 5th time in 3 months. We saw an ENT last week who put him on 20 days of an antibiotic (he didn't have strep at that point-just trying to knock out any remaining strains). Sunday morning, he woke up with a fever. Monday, still a fever, so we went to the doc. Amazingly, he had strep. He caught it while on antibiotics. He also has a nasty cough. I think his tonsils will be coming out soon. :-( But it will have to wait until we get back from Vietnam. I imagine we'll be there over Christopher's birthday (1/15). Sooner would be better, but that's a realistic expectation, I think.
Madison turned 5 months old Monday. Happy month birthday, little girl! We love you and can't wait to meet you!!

Oh! I am so happy for you that you got updated pictures!!! Congratulations! I am also very glad to hear that the scabies looked a bit better. You will be with her soon!
I hope you get your approval soon! I also hope that Dylan feels better soon, poor kid!
Updated pictures always made my day, so I'm happy y'all received some new ones. Thank goodness the scabies looked better. I'm really sad to hear about Dylan and his illnesses. Strep hurts! Hope things get better for him soon. Here's hoping you get the travel nod before Christmas.
Merry Christmas Steph, Chris, and Dylan!
