Celebrating one week home!!
So after about 20 min we finally get a good enough visa picture for you and we even somehow collected some man's purple comb for a keepsake,LOL. We went back to the hotel where daddy changed you diaper and I made you a bottle. You went asleep and slept till about five in the afternoon. We watched you as you slept,we couldn't believe just how beautiful you were. You then woke up with some smiles and then you ate some mashed potatoes and you loved them. We liked our room service food too!! IT was GOOD!! Then more play time with toys and we watched our Bill Cosby dvd. You bonded to me and daddy and we were definate bonding to you. It felt like a miracle as we held our baby girl. Daddy gave you a name,brown sugar. And you loved brown sugar in your oatmeal. Then you fell asleep for the night and we did too. We woke up early just daddy and I as we were talking and having some hot tea while we wrote in your journal and waited for you to awaken your beautiful sweet eyes.
You woke up right on schedule at 5:45 a.m. with smiles. By this time you were already crawling, talking, and loving your toys! Then you had your baba to drink.
Finally it was bath time,and well our room had no hot water,so we upgraded to another room with a bigget tub!! We gave you your first bath with your little yellow ducky and you just loved it!! Today,we started to show your pictures of your big brothers. We all got ready and went downstairs for a great continental breakfast!
We took some pictures of the lovely gardens also. Then you were ready for your morning nap! The rest of the day we played,ate and slept. What a vacation!!
Next the journey from Kolkata to Delhi!! Stay tuned,off to put Maiya down for her nap.
We have so far been home one week and Maiya is doing so good. The bonding with all of us is great, and she has slept all night the past 4 nights! She loves strawberries and so much more. She loves her food for sure. She is sleeping with us for now! The boys do so good with her and she loves them. Maiya is always smiling and laughing. She has two top teeth and one on the bottom. She loves her thumb too!She crawls,and then pulls herself up and then stands for a few seconds without holding on,then she gets tickeled and falls in our arms. So she should be taking off anytime! We already took her for her well check up and had our first Homestudy visit. We will probally have to redo her shots,UGH.
Our case worker couldn't believe how good she is doing. Little brown sugar,(Maiya) we just love,and the spice which is the boys we adore. Sugar for the sweetness of her ,and for the boys spice, cause they know how to spice things up around here. Last night as it was storming and we were all piled up as a family in the boys room waiting for daddy to come home from work... Adyn says MAMA,WE ARE NOW A HEAVEN FAMILY!
We are so blessed beyond words and we are loving our life together as THE FENWICK FIVE! Have a great memorial day weekend to you all.

It's so good to see how well she's doing -- doesn't it make the heartache of your long wait just melt away? She is just beautiful! Can't wait to hear about the rest of your trip.

It is so good to hear how well you are all adjusting and settling in. Too bad about the shots. That is never any fun.
