A new day

Okay, we have a lot to catch up on, obviously.

We're just waking up on Tuesday AM here. Luc Au Su, as we now call him, started stirring at 5:45. His diaper was wet, but he didn't seem to want a bottle. He just wants to play, and I hear him gurgling away with Peggy in the other room on the big bed.

Meanwhile, Maisie Minh Tam is still sleeping, despite our stirring about.

This makes sense to us. Luc basically conked out yesterday whenever he had a chance--especially while we walked around Hanoi on our regular rounds, now with the babies in Bjorns.

We had a challenging but wonderful day yesterday. Last night wasn't too bad. But generally I would say we don't yet have to listen to the "I told you so" crowd, but those of you who have been though baby life and have been waiting to see our adaptations, they have definitely begun.

But we are doing fine, which is most important. The babies are healthy and definitely happy, even with us. The both have some colds and congestion. Maisie Minh Tam had some coughs during the night--but it seems to be, as Forrest Gump would say, "cough due to cold." They are both a little stuffy. Peggy worried in the night and wondered about seeing the clinic today, but now it is morning. They are both sleeping, eating, and playing--probably not time yet for the doctor.

We have much to tell about yesterday. I'm not sure when we will have time. That should tell you something!

Thank you all for your support and comments. This is an entirely new part of the adventure.

Trying to eat breakfast with one hand should be interesting.
