2nd Day
Today we went back to Civil Affairs to complete paperwork and vow to love her and take care of her, never abusing or abandoning her. And to give her a good education. Then we went to the police station to get her passport paperwork done. We also received her adoption decree, and she is officially ours as far as China is concerned.

She looks so happy to be with both of you!  I knew that today would be a great day for you guys! As George said, the girls will be the prettiest little ladies in Pekin!

Here's Madison asleep on Daddy. She slept on both of us alot today. She didn't sleep very soundly last night. She slept but she kept whimpering alot.

Another shot of her sleeping on daddy. For breakfast this morning she ate scrambled eggs, tiny bits of banana bread and a couple of sips of apple juice. She didn't really want any formula until late this morning.

Here's Madison and mommy. She attached to daddy right away (which was sad for mommy yesterday!) but she has decided she likes me, too, today. (The babies often prefer the daddies first for some reason.)

We were finally able to get her to take her first bottle of formula. We were originally told to make it room temperature, but we found out she likes it as hot as possible!

Now Madison is sleeping again. She makes a sucking sound like she is nursing a bottle when she sleeps. It is really cute.
