The picture here was taken before bed last evening. But we do want to share that she slept until 8:00 a.m. (and I had to wake her so we could have breakfast and meet our guide). Today included an appointment with the People Republic of China Civil Affairs Office (where we officially became a family yesterday, when we received Willow)--the purpose of today's appointment was to officially be given permission to adopt Willow, after answering a series of important questions. Not that you care ... but ... Willow has some gunky post-nasal drip/sinus infection, but not in her lungs. We took her to a very nice doctor, from Singapore, who prescribed an expectorant and some prescription creme for some bites and rash on her side. By the way, she weighs just over 20 lbs. On the way home the contents of her tummy were projected all over us and Teddy; Teddy and clothing were covered (Teddy, in turn, had to be rushed to the laundry-doctor). The peanut is once again sleeping soundly. I got a great look at her palate today, while she was crying :) Looks very healthy and pink, to us. She is able to suck on the bottle quite nicely, and isn't fussy about the nipple type. This is good, because at the orphange she fed from a special bottle for cleft-affected babies.
