Too cute! I love the alligator and elephant. I have never shopped for our child until we met Artem in February and now I have so much fun shopping for him.
Hanna Andersson?! We LOVE this catalog! These are soooo cute! I am so excited for you. You are getting so close to bringing Eli home. :) Can't wait to see him in these new clothes!
