Yesterday was the big day- we got Eila! She is beautiful and what seems to be absolutely the ideal baby. She is good natured (didn't cry once on the 4 hour drive home), she laughs, plays, poops and eats just like a baby should. We took her out for a walk around the Hoan Kiem Lake with us then to a restaurant for dinner where she slept while we ate. We love her. I have to admit that there was a moment when we did experience the reality of having a baby for at least a half hour from 4-4:30pm yesterday with uncontrolled screaming for no apparent reason. So, we are learning. We got up at 4am today probably more because we were ready to play with her than that she was getting us up- she coughed once and squirmed- so we picked her up- and she smiled at us. We have had a good first day and night with 7 straight hours of sleep with her in a crib. Wow! I hope this continues. We cannot wait to get home and introduce her to everyone!

Wow, you guys, Eila is amazing! It sounds like the 3 of you are having a blast. You definitely need to post a new family portrait. Congratulations! Suma
