Wednesday, February 20 - Start of Day

I figure I'll post before you all go to bed and we're just waking up.

We all were able to sleep through the night and IT WAS GREAT! Can you sense my enthusiasm?

We all got up around 7:30 a.m. local time. And I manage to pull Emily out of her crib. Yes, she cried, but she's warming up to me. I gave her a bottle and moved her around without incident. Mommy is taking a shower and Emily's sitting on the bed with it just her and me in the room. She's calling out to mama "baw baw" which means she wants to be held, but by mama only.

Today, we have a free morning until 2 p.m. So, we'll take it easy and I'll try and post all of Anamaria's pics to flickr.

This afternoon, we go back to the orphanage and meet with the director. Should be our last visit, with the exception of getting Emily's passport on Friday.

The comment was made more than once yesterday by several. "now that we have our kids, let's go home." Well, it's not like that. Hard to believe we have yet another week and a half here.

We can't wait to show off the new addition.

We wish you could come home now also. We are anxious to meet Emily. Zachariah says that he wants to go to China and see Emiwee.

We can't wait to see her. I read your blog to Mom and she agreed, now that you have her, it's time to come home.
She thought that Emily saying "baw baw" might mean she was saying she wants her bottle. :-)
Thanks for the update. We're enjoying the pictures.
Love Ya'll,
Greg
