Sorry!

We're having issues uploading photos to my blog. I'm still working on it though :). Our first night with Ashlyn was incredible. We put her to bed with her bear, blanket, and paci and she went right to sleep. She slept through night without a peep. When she woke up this morning, we took her into bed with us and fed her a bottle. She LOVED this and she loved cuddling. She IS the sweetest baby. Very easy going and so lovable. We're spending a lot of time cuddling, playing and reading to her. We've already seen a big improvement with her verbal skills. Before, she was very serious and wouldn't make the typical baby babbling while she was playing, nor would she really belly laugh. She's now babbling like crazy and she's given a couple of belly laughs. We're having a difficult time getting her to eat solids. She'll only eat a small amount of baby food at a time, but I brought pediasure and she really likes this. I keep offering her Cheerios. She likes to fling them ( this is what actually makes her belly laugh ). She also likes to pick them up and transfer them back and forth between her fingers, occasionally, she'll take a bite, but always spits it out :). Hey, we're making progress. We just found out for sure that our adoption is one of the last in this region, for now, because of passport issues. THANK GOD we got our court date when we did because I don't know how long it will take to get this straightened out. We feel very lucky. As far as her size, she isn't nearly as small as she was the first time we met her, she's actually pretty tall. She has big feet and hands and the 6-12 month clothes that I brought are actually too small on her WOOHOO!!!! She does look pretty skinny and boney, but I think that she will likely put on weight now that we have her. Sean, if you're reading this before school, then have a good day today :)
