Finally in Texas...

time zone, that is!  We have been home now a full week with only one challenge but it's a big one. 

She's eating great - no trouble at all changing from the sugary sweet Chinese formula to our organic choice and we can even add vitamins to her bottle each morning. She loves all the food we've tried, although sweet potatoes are clearly the best.  Visitors are welcome and she's even getting used to her 100-mile-an-hour cousin who can't keep her hands off this baby.  Errands, no sweat. Inside, outside, restaurants, cars. You name it, she can handle it. 

But back to the challenge.  I like my sleep and so does Brian. I need a good solid 8 each night and Brian can handle even  more than that.  Yes, we are big sleepers.  And so is Emerson, only she's been sleeping with the Chinese.  At the beginning of the week, she was wide awake smiling and playing until about 5am. Then she crashed until noon. Now, I enjoyed those mornings - time to walk the dogs, have some breakfast, catch up on  my stuff but it was all done while sleep walking which wasn't going to last much longer.  Sleep arrived on Wednesday and Thursday around 1am and then 11pm on Friday.  Woohoo.  And then came Saturday night and we all slept soundly from 9:30 until 7am.  Big Woohoo! I think we have finally arrived Big Tex!
