INTRODUCING Miss Olivia.....

We are thrilled beyond words to show you our first photos of Miss Olivia - we have very little information yet as we won't get her translated file until Monday. Her birthday is 8/10/05, but we don't even know if that's August 10 or October 8 - either way, she's the most beautiful, precious baby girl I've ever seen. We feel so very blessed and couldn't be happier. We'll share more information as we get it early next week.

    Yahoo!!! What great news. We are so excited to see Olivia Grace after all this time. She is such a beautiful Princess. We think she will be equally as good a sailor as a ball player!

    Cheers to you all.

    Love Jan and Steve
