Rose Mei: Oh what a difference a day makes!

Totally exhausted last night.




















Good morning! Before I go to bed, I thought I'd post some pics for your enjoyment. Today has been great. Rose slept through the entire night without a peep. The poor girl must have been emotionally and physically exhausted last night. She woke up a little fussy this morning, but after snuggling into bed with Lillian and her Reagan bracelet, she calmed down. She really seems to like Lillian. She, as well as the other babies, are starting to adjust and you can see the lights coming on within their eyes. Rose was quite active and content today. She and Lillian played for a while in the floor and seemed to have a great time. She is very inquisitive and seems to study everything very hard. Everything is a new discovery for her. We've even seen some smiles today. She had a couple of grieving moments today, but overall she was a pretty happy girl. She seems to be getting acquainted with us and things continue to get better. She is still exhausted due to her normal routine/schedule being totally blown at this point, as evident by her naps off and on today and her passing totally out about 7:00 this evening. As I said yesterday, her world has been turned upside down. But, it will get better with time. Overall, we are overly please with her progress. She's a very good baby! We have been soooo blessed!


We're going to try to watch the UK game online tomorrow morning. Here's hoping your Saturday ends and my Sunday begins with a HUGE Wildcat win! Go Cats!

  1. Are you tired of all my comments yet??? Hope not, cause I can not help myself! These pictures are great!! I wish there was a way to make comments about each one. Michelle just looks so good and content in all of these and the picture of Kevin holding a sleeping Rose is precious! Rose just couldn't get any more adorable! She sounds like a great sleeper..... yay!!! I'm glad Lillian's been able to swim too!! Going to Lin and Mark's to watch the game again, I'll show off your blog to everyone just in case they haven't seen it yet!

  4. I have again checked this blog all day long. I can't believe how much of my thoughts are about you all and that sweet baby girl. I love seeing the pictures of the other families and their new additions too. What an incredible blessing for those of us who get a "window" to your experience. Rose is absolutely amazing and I just can't believe that in just a couple of weeks we get to meet her in person. Lillian is doing so well with her (this is where I say I told ya so). What an emotional journey with such a happy ending. I must say, it's so great to get to follow a blog and cry happy tears. We love you guys and are praying for your safe return and Rose's adjustment to her new life. Please keep the pictures coming, we LOVE them!!

  5. PS, I absolutely LOVE that look of deep concentration that she has in most of the pics. I feel like I can see her personality in her expression. Adorable, and beautiful too!!

    She is adorable!!! I am so happy for your family! It looks like you are all on a tropical vacation while we are up in the cold. It hasn't been to bad, but tomorrow it is supposed to snow! It is going to be a long three days. Can't wait to see you guys and get a close up look at your sweet baby girls.

  7. Indeed what a difference a day makes! Rose looks like she's settling in. The rest of you look a little more calm and rested. Lillian looks like she's really enjoying the trip. Happy Sunday!!
