A little more about Lillie Mei

Today was one of the most exciting and exhausting days of my life!
We left our hotel in Beijing at 8:00 to go to the airport, flew to Nanchang, had 20 minutes in our hotel room and then left to get the babies.

There were 5 other families getting their daughters with us and it was so chaotic, emotional, and crazy! Just watching those families was a tremendous blessing.

Lillie Mei arrived about 15 minutes later. She came right to me and was very calm. Unfortunatley she smelled of urine and was so dirty it broke my heart. Within 15 minutes Kirk got her to smile!

We got back to the hotel, had less than 45 minutes to give her a bath and be back down to dinner. She did great during the whole process including the bath. At dinner she banged her stacking cups and threw Cheerios :0) She did eat steamed egg. Right after dinner I had to go fill-out paperwork. At this point Lillie Mei had smiled, laughed, and had not shed a tear. However, when I returned we discovered she can cry and is still crying off and on. She's soooo tired and I think missing her nanny. She won't take a bottle possibly b/c we have the wrong kind of formula. Kirk is trying to calm her now with little luck.

Please pray that we can get her to sleep and that we can find the right formula tomorrow--they didn't have it at the store nearby.

Sorry--no video right now but a few more pictures.

Love you all!
