Ok, it has been 3 weeks!

So much has changed since we've gotten home. We are ALL finally sleeping. It was musical beds the first two weeks. We are still picking up hitch hikers in the evening. If you wonder what that means, it means the Shelby sneaks into our bed each night. Since Savannah has been home, we are back in the habit. Tonight she was instructed to stay in her bed. Mike is tired of ending up on her double bed, bunked with Aiden. She is sooo cute sleeping next to me. Until I get kicked in the head. Sometimes I wake up and she has her arm wrapped around me. It is so cute!!

As for Savannah's sleeping, she's doing great. There are no more nights of us listening to her scream. It was really hard letting her scream, but it has paid off. Tonight we put her down and not a word. Each morning she waits patiently for us to get her up. She will stay quiet even if she see's me get up. It is so sweet of her! She is in a crib in our room for those of you that are wondering.

On to Savannah's eating habbits. She is eating wonderfully!! I feed her baby food three times a day and she has 3 bottles. I can't believe how far we have come since the first feeding. It was torture to watch her cry as I continued to put baby food in her mouth.

She has transitioned to US formula just fine. She was on the Chinese formula that has been in the news lately. I don't have her test results yet, but she is in God's hands. We did our lab work last Thursday. I put it off since I was not looking forward to having a screaming baby when they try to draw blood. I was shocked when not a word came out of her mouth as she filled four tubes of blood. She was about to start crying, but they started singing and talking to her. I was amazed!!

My sister just told me that there are 53,000 babies that were affected by the tainted milk with melamine in it. The number keeps increasing each day. There isn't really information about the longterm effects of melamine and Babies. We just praise God that she is finally here. We trust that he will protect her body from whatever harm it may have caused her.

School is moving along. This week was a challenging week with Aiden. I'm hoping to regroup this week and start a new track next week. Aiden goes to school 2 days a week, so I'm very grateful on those days. I don't know what I'd do without the break. Being mom and teacher is very difficult for both of us. Shelby is doing great in her kindergarten class and I love it.

On another note, thanks to all of you who have been checking out my blog. I'm glad that so many of you enjoyed it while we were in China. I had no idea how addicted some of you got. Sorry it has been awhile since our last update. Thanks are kinda hectic these days.

Have a great night!
God Bless!
