I have so much to blog about, but if you are here, I know why. Everyone wants to see pictures of Deanna. Who could blame you? She is so adorable! So I'll post a picture here and then blog more later.
I do have to give a little background first. Deanna and I met Sunday night at about 10:30 pm (10:30 AM in the US). She is very shy and reserved. She smiled for me the first night and the next day. She really likes to be cuddled and kissed. Her muscles are underdeveloped and she can't hug back or put her arms around me, but she throws herself at me so I hold her and she pulls my hair to get my face near hers so I can kiss her.
Today (Tuesday) she laughed out loud for the first time. She thinks her Uncle Dean is hysterical and he had her laughing for a long time today. That was the greatest sound I've ever heard.
Here are some pictures of their laughing session.

What a beautiful little girl! I'm sure both of you will be as happy as can be!
Your post about Deanna's laughter warmed my heart. The sound of my daughters laughter is still the greatest sound I have ever heard even after 3 months.
How precious, thanks for posting!!
