Day 3--April 6th

This morning Mom woke up with an unbearable headache and nausia. Not feeling well enough for the days planned activities, she opted to stay in the hotel room with Chloe and let Dad go shopping at a mall with the group and then eat afterward at Pizza Hut again.

After a good nap, Chloe and Mom had a fun time playing in the room and trying to walk. Pete came back from shopping and proclaimed that we were the lucky ones as all the other babies were crying all afternoon, and their lungs were much stronger than Chloe's. He said the mall had a very fancy store just like Macy's, but that there was a swarm in the baby department as there were other groups of adoptive families all rushing for the same items. Pete came back with a couple of pairs of cute baby shoes, including one pair of squeeky shoes. Most importantly, he came back with the much coveted Coke Light. Maybe Mom's headache will finally get better.

Pete and Lori,

Congratulations on your family addition! She is absolutely adorable and seems so brave for suck a little one. I imagine she has been through a lot already.

I hope Lori got her Coke; sounds like a massive caffeine deprivation headache! Not what you need with a baby to care for.

All the best wishes from Massachusetts!!!

Lori & Pete,
We're so excited to finally see you and little Chloe united. What a wonderful moment that must have been to have her placed in your arms for the first time. We've been waiting and checking for days to hear more. What a wonderful suprise to wake up this morning to the beautiful pictures of Lori and Chloe and to hear about your first days together. I tried to call your phone yesterday but got a woman named Barbara who said she got your phone by mistake and that you have hers. I hope you're able to get the situation rectified. Anyway, just want you to know we love you all and wish you happy bonding!
