Happy Days!

I'm so happy to write this post...we traveled this week to my (Wendy's) parents house, neither of whom had met Blen yet. we were worried about taking her away from her 'newly familiar world' and driving her two hours across the state of Michigan. She fell asleep for over one hour of the car ride and looked at the scenery for the rest! She warmed up to my parents quickly, ran laps with Joel in the house, and slept 8 hours that night. We were overjoyed my sister, Krista, & 4yr old, Lauren, stopped by for a few hours and were able to meet her as well. I asked my mom if Blen was everything she thought she'd be, mom replied, "I had no idea she'd be such a doll already, she'd adorable!". There's the verdict. She was a trooper for the trip and really left an impression. I told my parents months prior we wouldn't be traveling for awhile b/c it's recommended she remain in a normal routine to adjust to her new world. My dad aptly responded, "visiting us once a week is your normal routine". I certainly hope it continues to be so!
