Clothing

The girls will not take any clothing with them from the orphanage - that clothing belongs to the orphanage and will be used for the other children. We'll be buying just a few things here for the trip to the U.S. The sizes listed have been guessed based on measurements. If in doubt, buy a larger size as they will soon grow into them. Other families who have adopted smaller children (preschoolers, toddlers) have said that the children often grew a few inches in the first few months in their new families.
All three of the girls are truly girly girls. They strongly prefer pastels, pinks, and purples. Although they generally like frilly things, Maria also likes sporty outfits as well.
