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

1/9/10 Saturday Morning




My two little monkey's....... both looked as if they just rolled out of bed...... and they absolutely did...... Baylon is into crumpling paper, and Pirate is just hangin'..... she crumples and throws.... as she did with the one behind her.Still haven't taken down the tree..... have some things to straighten down in the basement, and then we'll deal with the tree.

Baylon still isn't keen on going down for naps and bedtime. If she's fallen asleep, which is my dream, then all we have to do is get her smoothly transitioned to the bed. Today, we are having trouble with that theory, and are opting for letting her get used to being alone. Hence the screaming began again, and Dave is currently in the rocking chair staring at our baby. I think that we'll have to give the screaming session another go and see if we can get passed that this time.

She has been sleeping in her crib at night, and once asleep, if she wakes up, then she usually will fall right back to sleep with me standing there..... we still have sleep in sessions in my room around 5:30 am, but Mama loves these as much as Baby....

Oh well, that's it for now...... need to run to Stop and Shop, and groom my boy....... he needs another brushing, and that's our bond time. What he really needs is a bath, but will wait a bit for that, if I can help it.
