We're back



We are finally home.  Today was the first chance I had to look at the blog.  Unfortunately, two of the days did not post.  I think it was because the picture files were too big.  One was from Nanchang a couple of days after we got Elsie and the other was the Red Couch day.  And to think I got up at 3am to do the posts for noone to see.  I am attaching the Red Couch pictures here now. For those of you who are not familiar with China adoption, the Red Couch is a couch at the White Swan Hotel in Guangzhou where all adoptive families have pictures taken before coming home. Elsie was sooo good all day that day, EXCEPT during the picture taking. She was not happy about sitting there by herself. She wasn't much better when we set her with Emily. Emily is 9 months old and is the daughter of our travel companions. She is a very happy baby. I hope she and Elsie will keep in touch over the years to come. 
Elsie got to meet three of her siblings last night.  Heather and Sabrina at the airport and Charlie at home.  She even let Sabrina hold her.    She met  her nieces today.  Seems a little odd for a 21 month old to have a niece almost 15 doesn't it.  She loved them all, but seems especially close to Courtney.  So far, it has been a great day!
