I finally have a chance to sit at the one computer in the hotel (I hate computer hogs - some guy has been using it for the past hour - I finally asked him nicely to share!)

I must admit, yesterday was a very hard day. Fern was definitely very upset with the transition from foster mom to her new family. She cried all afternoon with a big pouty lip - she was breaking our hearts. I felt soooo bad taking her away from Rosa - it was emotionally exhausting for all of us. She ended up sleeping in the bed with us, which meant I didn´t get much sleep.

Today was a MUCH better day. She was a saint at the embassy (ok, she slept through about an hour of it!) and then we had a nice afternoon playing outside. Tomorrow at 3:30 I had back to the embassy to pick up our package and then Wednesday we fly home. I´ve got the baby motrin ready!!! Unfortunately she has a bit of a bacteria infection in her tummy, which means BIG explosions in the diapers. How the hell do you change a diaper in the bathroom on an airplane - there is barely room for one person!

tried to post some pics..but the connection here sucks..will try again manana.
