Friday February 8
An entire week has flown by -- filled with visits from friends and
daily milestones from Tiger Lily. I cannot imagine that this little
girl was afraid of the floor less than two weeks ago. Now she can
defend herself from the tongue attacks of Chloe and today is starting
to take her first steps without holding on to the table. I can only
imagine the other little Xuwen girls are doing the same amazing
things. She does have an attitude, but that is great (except when
she does her fast escape act getting out of the highchair straps).
We do not want to bore everyone with daily posts, but some highlights
will get posted.

Friday February 1
You have never seen two people happier to be home. We cheered when
we left Beijing, and cheered again as we crossed Canada into
Minnesota, finally in US airspace. Lily couldn't have been better on
the trip. Her day was a 25 hour day door to door. What a trooper!!
Thank goodness for baby bjorn and that she likes to be in it.
Yesterday was a little rough for everyone just trying to get
adjusted. Brit had her senior night for basketball and she did
great. So did Lily. The loud buzzer from the score board didn't
even phase her. I had a much greater appreciation for our national
anthem when the played it at the game. Today she had a check up
with the pediatrician. We are lucky, our pediatrician specializes in
international adoption. She said she is probably one of the best
babies she has seen from China. We feel extremely blessed. So now
if we get her time clock turned around, we will be doing fantastic.
That is all for now. Thank you to family and friends for all the
prayers and help they have given us! I know all the prayers worked!
