It has been 24 hours since this sweet little bundle has come into our lives. She is such a sweet calm baby! She woke up this morning after 9 hours of uninterupted sleep and she was all smiles. We had a good warm bottle and some fruit snacks and played for about an hour. She was using mommy and daddy as a jungle gym and was gumming our faces and noses : ) Not sure if those were kisses or not but we will take it either way. She is now asleep again, I am beginning to recognize the signs of tiredness. She starts playing with her ears and rubbing her eyes and of course, the huge yawn helps my lightening quick mind! : )

We have definitely been blessed with another Indian princess although this one comes in a much smaller package. Her size 2 diapers barely fit her and the six month outfit she has on now is baggy on her and the legs are too long!

I forgot to mention yesterday that before we picked her up we managed to get in an hour of shopping time. The New Market is just a short walk from the hotel so we went and had a blast buying Salwaar Kameez and Sari's for the girls with matching bangles of course! I cannot wait to see Alysha and for her to meet her baby sister. We have had emails from granma and grandad and it sounds like she is having lots of fun but we miss her dearly.

Some time today we are meeting up with another Dillon family who arrived this morning. We are excited to see them. I will post more later.

Melissa & Peter,
WHAT A LITTLE DOLLY! She is so beautiful! I love the one where she is smiling. She is such a little peanut too. Micah was almost 15 lbs. when we brought him home, and he felt super small to me. :o)
I'm so happy that the Lord has blessed you with another beautful baby girl!
Hugs from Ohio!
Pam, Joel, & Micah too!

Hope you have had a lovely few days, we are constantly thinking about you and I am apparently glowing because I am an Auntie again :) I can't stop smiling. Love you!!!!
