Gotcha Day!






Well we have her. She is so beautiful. It was such a touching moment when they handed her to us. I am not going to type much now about the event as she has been a very upset baby and mommy's nerves are shot. Daddy had to go to the bank with a group of the other dads and exchange more money and find out where the place to get our laundry done is at. They warn parents that the babies will latch onto one or the other parent usually and that is can often times be the daddy, which I don't find much in the US but this is definitely the case with us. She is already a daddy's girl so the past hour that Billy has been gone running errands, she has screamed. Nothing mommy could do would settle her down. Finally, I gave her a bath in the sink and let her play with some ducks and she calmed down but still screamed after she got out. She still hasn't eaten anything but they say that is to be expected in the grieving period. I laid her down in her crib and just rocked the crib and she finally just fell asleep. She seems to have a lot of congestion and a doctor will be at the hotel in a few hours to check out the babies so I am going to ask him about her congestion and hopefully he will give some advice and how bad it is. Like I said, not going to post much now but will add some pics for you at least and hopefully I will have some time tomorrow to do another post.
