Surgery went Well

Hello everyone. Morgan's surgery was a great success! She was so pitiful. She has a stent in her left nostril to try and hold up that side of her nose. She will have to wear that off and on for about 3 months. she has little no no splints on her arms, so she won't touch her face. I feel so bad for her. She is a little swollen today on her left side, but she looks great. I have to tell you, I loved her old face, so it's hard to get used to her having a full lip now. She is eating wonderfully, of course. She slept all day yesterday and kept me up all night. That was not fun, but she just couldn't get comfortable. They gave her some tylenol with codeine, which helps, but I think she is just mad! Poor thing. Atleast the hard part is over for now. Thanks for all the prayers. I will be sure to post pictures as soon as I get back to Florida. She really does look great. Lots of snow here now. We had a jammie day today and got movies, so that was fun. Be home soon. Love to everyone.

We're in Michigan

Hello everyone. Sorry, it took a few days to let you all know that we made it to Michigan. There is lots of snow for Morgan to see and hopefully, get her to walk in it, so I can take pictures. Morgan did well on the flight. We got delayed in Detroit for an hour on the runway waiting to get deiced, so she got a little fussy then. She loves her grandpa and nana Ruth. She also met the rest of her family and had a great time showing off. After church Aunt Suzie and grandma Peggy had lunch and had a cake welcoming Morgan. She actually ate some of it! She was upset when I wouldn't let her have anymore. She is sleeping well, which is great. We got see Dr. Smith tomorrow for her first visit and surgery will be on Thursday. I'm not able to post any pictures here. Sorry. I will have to post them when we get home unless I can figure out how to connect my camera to this computer, but I'm not sure that is going to work. You all will see plenty when I get home though. Miss everyone. Be home soon. Pray for little one.

Adjusting to New Home

Well, Morgan is adjusting very well. We lowered the crib as the little monkey was trying to climb out. Morgan is beginning to crawl through the house and having a great time. She has been so happy. It's wonderful to see her smiling face everyday. Diaper changes have improved greatly. She no longer cried at the top of her lungs. I think she is realizing it helps her, it's not a bad thing. Still having trouble with the baths. I am hoping that will improve soon. Morgan has a great appetite. She gets so excited when she sits in her high chair. She bounces and kicks her legs. It's so funny. She loves going for walks, which is great for us also. We are getting ready to go to Michigan to see her nana Ruth and grandpa and have her first surgery. We are all very excited. I am hoping to keep up the blogs while there also.

We're Home!

Well, after 16 hours of flying, we made it home last night. I was so happy to get home and off that plane that I cried. Morgan did so well. She slept a little, flirted a lot, and was so happy. We had a great welcoming party at the airport. Sara and Elia brought Morgan a balloon that says "welcome baby Morgan" and Sara made her lots of cards. it was so sweet. Pam taped the whole thing for us, which was wonderful. Morgan did pretty well in the car seat for the first time. She cried at first, but fell asleep fast. She met her new pets. She likes the dog, but is not sure about the cat. she didn't sleep at all last night. it was like day one all over again. It was awful. I wouldn't let her sleep at all today and now she is sleeping in her crib, which is a shocker. Let's hope she stays in the crib all night. Next Saturday we will head to Michigan for her surgery and to see her grandpa and Nana Ruth. I hate to traumatize her again, but I also hate to wait to long to have the surgery done. I'm sure the first day will not be fun, but she seems to adjust pretty well. So, I will keep everyone posted on her surgery. Thanks again for all the support.

Last Day In China

We woke up this am to rain and more cold weather. It turned out to be a good day to leave right? The train ride was really cool. Very nice train. Morgan was a little fussy since we didn't get a nap in the afternoon, but she settled down a little at the end. We will leave in the early am for Tokyo, then Detroit, then Orlando. Say prayers for us and the pilots! Can't wait to see everyone. Thanks for all the comments, and emails, they were great! Love to everyone.
