Low key day

Greetings! 1st night with Megan went much better than we expected. Although she went to bed crying, it was just for a few minutes and she was out. She slept all night and we had to wake her at 8 for breakfast. She was happy and ate a boat load! Especially watermelon. I think she may give Jacob a good run for the money when we get home. She eats everything I put in front of her which is something unheard of for our kids.

We spent a few hours at the museum with our friends Brandi, Michael, Maddox and their new son Max. They too are transitioning well and we're so happy for them. We can't wait to hear all about our other friends Jeff & Charika on how things are going with their 1st son. After the museum we came back to the hotel. Megan spent some one on one time with her Papa while I snoozed. Megan will let Jeffrey do just about anything for her with the exception of hold her hand while walking (she thinks it's a big game with Jeffrey) and she cries when he holds her. It breaks my heart but I know it is only for a couple of days. Megan isn't used to having males around her but this is very common for orphans.

Since Megan seemed to love her bath yesterday we figured in trying the pool. Boy she sure looked adorable in her suit. She loved the pool. Jeffrey was in the water and we stayed in a 3 inch water area. She played with Jeffrey splashing around. When I walked away to get towels Jeffrey managed to get her all the way in the water. I turned around and they were walking back and forth and she wasn't crying!!! She loved it.

We went to the local store for some diapers for Jeffrey to take to the orphanage tomorrow. As much as i'd love to see it, I am staying back with Megan. We both discussed that it would be far too confusing to Megan right now. It will be great to be able to she her when she gets older where she came from.

Any who, we are off to bed. Megan cried herself to sleep again. We hope this doesn't last much longer because it's so sad to hear her cry.

We miss the boys and Lily terrible and wish we were home. Only half was there...

When someone is tired she goes and sits by her crib. Funny because when we put her in it she screams.

Pool time!
