I've been wanting to post about a special gift I received in the mail just over a week ago... something for Khloe and something for myself. And as I look ahead to Thanksgiving, I couldn't think of a better time than now to give a shout out to my dear friend Melissa, as she is someone I am truly grateful for and so thankful that God has crossed our paths!! :) You've heard me mention her before, as she is one of Khloe's sponsors that I have come to know since we've been matched. She enjoys giving gifts and has sent several to Khloe at NewDay. She is also very creative and everything she gives is wrapped in so much love and care. Melissa has an Etsy shop where you can order some special personalized gifts of your own. They make great stocking stuffers and are the perfect gift for everyone from teachers to babysitters!! :)
Here are the beautiful Christmas gift tags and note pad that she sent for me!! ...they even come with the pretty ribbons to hang them from your gifts! Did I mention that I LOVE THEM!?! :)
*Note that the green 'patch' is covering my personal info... and is NOT part of the actual design.
Here is the pretty gift she sent for Khloe:
Lilly Pulizer gift and fabric swatches for Khloe's 100 Good Wishes Quilt!
(You can order the personalized name tags from her Etsy store.)
Is this adorable or what!? I love the colors and the cute ruffled skirt!
...Khloe will be the perfect model!! :)
Notice the bright pink hair bow with her name embroidered on it!! S'WEET!!!

Melissa also happens to be a big Lilly Pulitzer fan... and so she wanted to share her love for Lilly with Khloe by getting her this adorable swimsuit... it will be perfect for the lakes and our pool next summer!! :) This gift was born out of some fun conversations we had after seeing these SUPER CUTE photos of Khloe in an oversized swimsuit this past summer...and figured she probably should have something more her size so that she isn't flashing everyone when she is home! LOL!! Hey, a girl can always use a good excuse to shop ...especially for those fun girly-girl things! ;) We both still love these photos of Khloe... she is just too cute!!
I always love an opportunity to share more photos of Khloe... and these are still some of my favorites, even months later! :) By next summer this SweetiePie will be home in our pool!! Yay!!!!Have a blessed week!

Oh what a blessed and loved little girl your Khloe is! I can't wait to see pictures of your girl in her new swimsuit because that will mean she is HOME with you! =)
Such sweet gifts for your sweetie pie!
Love & Blessings from Hong Kong,

Okay those photos went from cute to cuter to cutest in no time! I love the stuff Melissa makes! And that swimsuit ... oh my goodness, could it be any cuter. I do not feel that way when I look at my swimsuit! (haha) And the photos of Khloe are the sweetest! What a smooch! I can only imagine how much you'd love to hop a plane and scoop her up right NOW! (or many NOWS ago!)
Thanks for sharing. We love the photos too :-)
ADORABLE! I am going over to that Etsy shop!!
I know a precious girl who needs her name on a few things!!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Hugs,
Diana
Oh, my! She's so cute!!! Even though she needs a bathing suit that fits her just right, those pictures are hilarious with the oversize swimsuit. To be that age and not give a care is great, huh?! :) Those gifts are adorable. Must check out the website. Hoping Khloe's arrival is soon.
Thanks Tanya for posting this ... of course I am crying over it all!
Thank you SO much for allowing me to be a part of Khloe's life (and yours!), it brings me such joy :)
xoxo
What precious gifts! They are tugging at my heartstrings! Oh, that swimsuit! Khloe will look like an absolute doll!!!!!
That is SO gorgeous!! I don't know Melissa, but I love her & want to be her friend. See? I love RECEIVING gifts, she loves giving them?? We'd be perfect for each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That bow?? Where did she get it? I am thinking that the girlygirl bowtique personalizes them...
So SWEET!! I just can't wait to see Khloe home with her family!! She is going to look so cute in that suit.
The Christmas stationary is ADORABLE!! What a blessing of a swet friend.
Then the material for her quilt?!!? I can't wait to get our piece out. Olivia picked it out just for Khloe.
Precious gifts, precious girl... precious God we serve!!
That bathing suit is so sweet, it will be perfect for your pretty princess!
Those photos are priceless :)
Ok, that swimsuit is ADORABLE. I also have a love for lilly pulizer, so of course, love that suit! Being the fashion freak that I am, I recognized the print right away, ha ha.
Very cute gift tags too...what a great friend you have!
I bet you're so excited to go get your little girl and try that swimsuit on her. She's gonna look pretty precious for sure! Beautiful photos of her you posted, what a doll :)
What size is Khloe wearing, or will be wearing, when you bring her home? I have some clothes from my Chloe that I would LOVE to send you! Gotta keep it between the C(K)hloes, ya know :) Let me know!

How cute that Khloe's too big swimsuit led to a beautiful gift like this! Your friend is soooo talented! You are blessed.
Melissa is such a sweet, thoughtful, and amazing person! Everything she creates is so pretty and perfect.
Awww... little Khloe's swimsuit is huge on her. I'm glad she has a new fancy swimsuit and she'll be in your pool this summer. :)
How thoughtful is that! And it's all so beautiful!!!
Super cute swim suit !
Thanks for stopping by and for the sweet comments. Khloe is so cute and I know you all are about to explode ( like us ) to go to China soon.
Oh my -- that little swimsuit is so adorable! And look at how your girl loves the water! I'm sure she can't get here soon enough! Have a great Thanksgiving!
Janet
Such cute gifts! Khloe just keeps getting cuter every time you post pictures. Just think how lovely and cute she will be by the time she gets to you!
Oh Tanya! How fun! I can't wait to see that sweetie in your arms!
We're so close in our timeline...you never know! We might get our little Kevin and Khloe together!
;)
One can dream, right?
It's the first time I've seen these pictures, look at that SMILE! Yes she loves water! Good idea to get her a sweet swim suit and what an adorable personalized bow. I truly love all things personalized! :)
She is going to be one sweet little fashion model!

She is so adorable! I can't wait to see Khloe in her new swimsuit and home with her forever family where she belongs!
I love all your photos of sweet Khloe! They are just precious!
She really is a sweetie and soon enough you'll have her in your arms forever and the wait will just melt.
Hugs,
Sarah
Oh I am in tears....she is just so sweet and precious...even in that bathing suit that is too big for her;) I cannot wait for her to be with her Mommy....I cannot wait for her to really know that she has a Mommy forever.
She is super duper cute...but Mama...you're gonna have to have a little talk with your daughter about modesty.
ha ha ;)
Can't wait to see ya'll TOGETHER at last! Those gifts help make the waiting a tiny bit more bearable. how very sweet!
What a beautiful girl your little Khole is. She will look precious with that swimsuit on. Are you doing the quilt? Please let me know.
Blessings
OH MY ... The new photo (posted by New Day) of Khole in her apron is precious. I so hope your travels bring you through Hong Kong with your angel baby!
Love & Blessings,
Kim
Tanya,
You have been on my heart....just don't seem to make it to the computer that much anymore!!! I miss you!
Melissa is so talented....LOVE the tags and notepad and that swim suit...well...that definitely has Khloe written all over it!!!
Will be sending your fabric and page soon:-)!
Love, hugs, and always prayers...
Tami
Sister - I am blog-missing you. Where have you gone? Update soon, please! :)
You've been awfully quiet. I hope everything is okay!
I just read about New Day opening a new facility serving South China. Guangzhou is very close to Hong Kong. My heart is racing!
I am praying for guidance on how we can get involved either through volunteering, gifting, or adopting! Thank you sweet friend for introducing them to me!
Love & Blessings,
Kim
Oh I love this!!!
