Something pretty amazing?
I think Maddy lookes like Gwen. Not like her twin but certainly like her sister. So I've been searching my old photos for proof but can't find any since all of Maddy's pictures are from about age 11 months and, except for her referral pictures, I only have pictures of Gwen from age 14 months.
So I pulled out the referral photos. Remember that both girl are just one month apart in age(Gwen is a month older than Maddy though). I'm pretty sure the referral pictures for both girls were taken at 11 months. Here's what I saw:

I've looked at LOTS of referral photos over the months and never seen two sets that matched so much in composition. Amazing (I think!) I called Tracey at USAA today and asked if she could request an update (with pics!). She said she would. I can't wait to see what little Madeline Abigail looks like now! :)
UPDATE: 19 months:
- Madeline is 20.24 pounds and 30 inches tall
- Her feet are 5.2 inches long
- She has 8 teeth
- She can walk up/down stairs, throw a ball and scribble
- She wakes up at 5:20 AM (we'll be changing that!)
- She goes to bed at 8:30PM and sleeps with her foster mom (that's nice)
- She is active, restless and stubborn on occassion (just like her sister!)
- Her favorite activities are playing with balls and walking by herself
- Her favorite foods are vegetables (good girl!)

Hi Donna! I've been to Germany for 3 days and I come back and find that you have 2 daughters! That's really great! And I think Madeline looks indeed like Gwendolyn. Congratulations!!

Oh my goodness... I saw the post about your second daugter on the Just for Jillian blog and really, I know I don't know you or anything, but congratulations on your beautiful new daughter and your beautiful Gwen! I am dying to know how you got your referral so quickly after travel, so I think I will hunt through your archives!

Donna, congratulations! I can't imagine the excitement you and Andrew are feeling right now. And sweet Gwen, she's been the star of her own show for almost 6 months now - boy is she in for a shock! I'm sure they will adore each other and get into lots of trouble together!
Best wishes,

YAY!!! YOU DID IT!!! Fantastic News!!! I'm sure I read in a previous post, that the little girl you were considering, had a cleft lip? If Madeline has a cleft lip - you certainly can't tell. She's is beautiful.
Speaking of beautiful - how gorgeous is that close up of Gwen (couple of posts below?) You certainly do have Double Happiness!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Donna,
Congratulations!!! Maddy is adorable and the similarities between the referral photos are amazing...I think that means it was meant to be.
Double Happiness is definitely what you will be feeling when they place Maddy in your arms!
