Hi All

Oh my goodness, who would have ever guessed that adding one little person to your family could cause such wonderful chaos?!!!! All those delusions of grandeur of the free time I would have while on leave from work, well lets just say, boy was I WRONG!!!!! Did I also mention I LOVE my new busy mommy life. As for catching up the blog once we were home, didn't happen. So I figure, if I was to ever blog again, I just needed to pick a starting point and go with it. For those of you hoping to see the rest of our days in China posted on a day by day recap, sorry. I can pretty much sum it up for you: We made it home, Lainee is ours forever, and I love the USA!!!! Not much more needs to be said about that.

Now moving on, I have so much to share about our lives since we have been home. Over the next few days I will attempt to bring this blog up to speed through pictures and posts. Did I happen to mention I LOVE being a Mommy!!!!!

Here are a few pictures of Lainee all snuggled into her crib the morning after we arrived home from China. She has adjusted exceptionally well and only had issues with the 12 hour time difference the first two days we were home; mommy and daddy on the other hand took several days longer. Next to eating, I'm pretty sure sleeping is her most favorite thing. She takes two naps a day and still manages to sleep through the night.
  

Our Little Angel



 

After several days of rest we ventured out for a stroll around the yard. We walked next door to check out Grandpa & Grandma DeBias' Christmas lights. Keep in mind, most of what Lainee is experiencing is all  "firsts" for her. So what may not seem like a big deal to us, is a very big deal to her.

Here she is trying to kick Frosty.

Stay tuned more cuteness to come.

Much Love,

Danielle, Ryan & Lainee, too!!

PS- Did I mention "I'm a Mommy!!!!"
