Feeling better-Look at that Smile!
Just a quick update to let everyone know that Emmy is feeling much better today. Still coughing and diarrhea but no fever and much happier, as is evident in the picture. She has smiled more today than she has in the past three days total. She was up around 2 this morning and that was an interesting experience to FINALLY get her to go back to sleep, and then she was up at 5. We ate breakfast and then we all went down for a nap around 9:30! Later she had her picture taken for her U.S. Visa (we're one step closer to coming home) and we did a little souvenir shopping. Now she and Dave are up in the room and he trying to keep her awake at least till 7. Oh well, not our call obviously!Funny thing from today-we were in the elevator with a couple from our group that we have made good friends with-Jan and Bob and their new daughter Elle. They have gone through a similar rough couple days with Elle and are sleep deprived like us and freaked out-like us. This is also their first child. So we were in the elevator and were talking and comparing poop-stories. After about five minutes we realized we weren't moving - no one had pushed the button. Scary.
Oh by the way, Emmy mimicked Dave today clapping his hands! Very exciting development! She has been crawling all over us today and seems to find us fun instead of just comforting. We can't believe we've only had her for four days. Love to everyone.

We're so glad that she's feeling better. I told you she was in good hands. It sounds like she's getting to know you all pretty well. If she's mimicking Dave already, we may have to reconsider letting her get to know some of these people back here. (I'm not going to mention any names!) Really though, that's great news. The picture looks like you all are having a great time. Little Emmy will have many more happy days ahead of her with you two. We can't wait until next week! Well obviously we have to wait...but it's really hard! Love, Nancy and Joe
You all are making me jellis. I feel this exciting. I know when you all get home every one will be lined up to give you all releaf.
Love Joe and Nancy
Well thanks for helping me with my Christmas card...I can see this picture right on front...here's my new baby Emmy. She is too cute. Everytime I see a new picture it brings tears to my eyes..I can't quit grinning. Then I have to print it and show everyone. I have been taking your updates to Mom in Rehab, of course, we both cried as I read them to her. Now all of the nurses in rehab know Emmy too. I'm glad she's feeling better. You all are doing a great job, you can see her coming to life right before our eyes. What a happy baby! Love and miss you, Teri and Ralph (Jazzmine too)
Wow a picture really does say a thousand words. She is so cute I can barely stand it! I wish you all were here. Hope that Emmy isn't the only one feeling better. See you all soon.
