Here we are on our second day in Guatemala!
We are having a great time! Last night, we tried to put Moriah down for bed about 10 as that is the time the foster mom told us that she normally goes to bed…but Moriah thought is was play time. So we played for a bit and then finally she went to sleep….and guess what…drum roll please….our 2 month old baby slept completely through the night. She did not wake up once during the whole night…she did wake up at 6:15 which is a little early for our taste, but she did such a great job. Mommy and daddy however barely slept a wink….we are not used to all of those baby sleeping noises that she makes and we kept feeling like we needed to check on her, but she was great!

Moriah cries rarely! Only when she is hungry, wet, or wants her pacifier. She really really really loves her pacifier! I am super glad that the foster mom brought the kind that she was used to since the kind we brought her she does not like. She is pretty happy with any bottle though. I brought several different ones and she seems to like them all so far.

This morning was a little foretaste of how horrible Friday is going to be when we have to leave Moriah here and go home. Moriah had to be in family court today. Her foster mom came to pick her up and wooo I was really not expecting to fall apart. I mean we only met her yesterday and she would only be gone 3 hours. I cried for about 10 minutes. We already love her sooooooooooooooooo much. She seems to fit with us soo well!
We are really praying now that her case will go through all the necessary steps quickly! I know you all will love to meet our little lady!
