Learning!!

We are into our second day as parents!! Our first day was quite eventful. I mentioned some of it in the earlier posts. When we finally arrived at the orphanage, Daniel had been traveling for 6 hours that morning. He did very well!! The Home Of Gods Love is such a special place. Everyone here has such a big heart. Bev Skiles has this thing down to a science. She is very strict about schedules for the babies. This ensures that they at least get a little sleep at night! Last night we stayed at a very nice hostel across the street because the they had another couple in the guest room. This was very nice as we were able to get a good night sleep in comfortable air conditioning. We feel more refreshed this morning. Yesterday was tough and I felt like I spent most of it sleepwalking. Tonight through the rest of the week we will be in the guest room here at THOGL. They wait till the third night till they wake us up for the 5am feeding. They figure that this is the time it takes for the jet lag to wear off. I think that if we can get through this week here with Daniel, home should seem easy. We'll see! Daniel has already experienced one of my famously LONG walks (ask the Peru team). We also learned that holding Daniel and eating with chopsticks at the same time is VERY difficult.
