We started this journey many years ago, knowing that our daughter was waiting for us somewhere in China. That journey began in 2004, but after a setback healthwise, we had to pull out, thinking our hopes were dashed forever. Then in late 2005, with renewed purpose and strength we again began the process of our adoption. We were logged into China March 28th, 2006, and were matched with our Dear Daughter, October 13th, 2009. GOTCHA 12/14/09 Forever Ours 12/15/09

FAST FORWARD - Operation Bath Time A SUCCESS !!!!!!!!! 12/28/09

NEW YORK BATHS RULE !!!!!

Well, we are actually sitting down........ not squalling, balling, or climbing out in fear. This bath time, was actually a long overdue success ! A much relieved, long awaited success, and the first of many fun bath times to come !
There's really toys in here???? They don't seem to mind this warm soothing water..........
Ahhh, the "almost" smile.......
Is it edible ???

I love that very serious, but oh, so very wise look she always has in her face. We have been home now for 2 1/2 months and have started to let our little one cry it out some, espcially when she falls asleep in our arms but the moment we put her down, boom, eyes wide awake and screaming. She is tired but just wanting to be held. So I do believe there are just times you have to say, she knows we are coming back for her and little crying will be okay. Her little expressions already make her seem like she has figured out the world already!!
