January 22, 2008 - Lily's First Birthday

Today is a great day for 2 reasons - Lily is 1 today and we are
officially her parents as of today! We completed the adoption
registration so she is officially our daughter. She is adjusting
despite a bad chest cough and not feeling well. I just know every
time she looks at me she is thinking "who is this blonde lady?!" But
she is getting used to both of us. Hopefully, she will feel better
soon. This afternoon we will do some shopping for clothes (now that
we know her size - small!!) and some squeaky shoes. It is somewhat
damp today so we don't want her out too much. She is taking her
bottles well and is trying a little solid food - she is definately
not used to the texture of solid food. So we'll take it slow with
her - it will be easier at home with baby food. Not too much else is
going on, she slept last night from 9pm to 7am when we HAD to wake
her. Dad and I slept awful, so we need naps too. Suz
