Its Official

We completed the official paperwork for the adoption today so Emelia is now officially our daughter. We had a very good night last night. She is a little slow warming up to us but all is well. We have gotten smiles so I am confident we are on track. She would not get in the bed with Evelyn or the crib. She fell asleep on the floor at the foot of the bed and we were able to move her without waking her. We all were dressed and ready this morning and had to wake her up. She didn't like that but was soon fine. We had to meet our guide by 8:30 to go complete the paperwork. We were then able to go to Carrefore, a multi level Walmart type store. We bought quite a bit of stuff. We found some pull ups. I forgot the ones I had at home. She has been wearing diapers but has only wet them at night. I prefer the pull ups espcially since miss independent wants to do it all herself. She did well with the shopping except I had to hold her the entire time. She seems to be warming up to me the most. This afternnon Scott took our laundry out to be done and Evelyn and Emelia helped me do some small pieces in the bathtub. That was a trip. I wish Scott had been there to video. Emelia is taking a nap right now. Scott and Evelen went to get in the pool but the rain came again and they are back and Evelyn is falling asleep as well. Emelia has not cried unless she has not gotten her way. She eats very well and appears healthy. I know there is more but will update later. We love hearing from you all. I cannot view the blog here but my sister in law copies and pastes the comments into an email for us. Thanks for doing that Jen. We love and miss you all.

P.S. - The first photo is while waiting to do paperwork, the second in retrieving a toy under the couch there and the third is sharing big sister's funyuns. : )
