Imitation

It’s amazing how much she can learn just from watching us… and Molly.

Progress.

We are slowly making progress on lots of things here.  Baby steps… with baby Elizabeth.  Last night we got a full nights sleep!.. sort of.  Elizabeth went to bed at 7:30 and slept until 5:30!  I did have to get up 3 or 4 times with her, but she always took a bottle and went [...]

Upside down and Inside out.

The last few days home with Elizabeth have been a little rough.  She is such a joy, but the jet lag is a major drag.  Her days and nights are backwards right now.  We have managed to take shifts staying up with her at night… so here I am, 2:30am and she just fell asleep. [...]

Home Sweet Home.

We made it home as scheduled!  Our flights all went well. Elizabeth really did great.  We ended up having an eight hour lay over in Tapai which actually worked out great for Elizabeth’s schedule.  We decided to get a hotel room at the airport hotel and it was a great decision.  This way we could [...]

Farewell Vietnam.

This will be my final post from Vietnam.  Right now we are busy packing for departure tomorrow morning.  It makes me somewhat sad to be saying good-bye.  This is the land our daughter was born… and for that we must never forget our trip here and the people that have been so kind.  We owe [...]

Looks like someone is ready to come home.

 

I can’t put my arms down!  There is one girl that works here at the hotel that is always worried about the way we have Elizabeth dressed.  One morning, when we didn’t really think it was cold at all, she actually made us go back up to the room and put another sweater on her.  [...]

We have Visa!

Well, I was all set to post last night when we experienced our first minor accident.  I knew it would happen eventually as the floors in this room are very slick.  Elizabeth was playing with napkins on floor, pushing them one in each hand as she crawled.  She thought it was so funny.  Then as she [...]

Passport and Medical Exam… Check.

Today we went to pick up Elizabeth’s passport.  After that we went over to the SOS clinic for her medical exam.  Even though her passport was ready a day late the Embassy is still going to let us keep our 2:00 Visa appointment tomorrow.  We just have to take all the paperwork to the Embassy [...]
