Gotcha Day






As we arrived at the Civil Affairs office the babies were being carried into the building and all the moms went crazy with emotion and of course the dads were all stoic and hung tough. Most of the parents including us didn't recognize our girls as they walked by us. Well after waiting three years we finally got our girl. While most of the girls cried when given to their new parents Anna just stared at us in curiosity. Once we got on the bus to go back to the hotel, she talked and danced the whole way back. Mom and dad are doing just fine and we made it through our first diaper change and bath. About the only time Anna has cried is when it came time for her diaper change and she fought the whole time. Wow!!!! what a ball of fire we've got. Lisa is busy giving her first night time bottle so I'm going to sign off and Lisa will post tomorrow.

She's SO CUTE!!! and she has teeth. How many does she have?

Is there a reason we can only enlarge certain pics? Right now I can only enlarge 1,3, and 5.

I'm totally excited about this whole thing! Something tells me that my little sister is going to be a carbon copy of her big brother ;)

Hi Lisa and John,

I can't wait to see her and hold her. She is adorable.

Wow...it sounds funny to say "Ryan's little sister"

I am reading the blogs to mom so she can know what's going on.
See you soon.
