GOTCHA!!!!

Officially introducing:

Yana Jewell and Tavi John Mayden!!!!

Just a short post while they both have a little down time in their beds, as when they are awake they want attention! And well... do you really expect me to say "not now"?!!!! :)

Yana hasn't eaten much, but a little milk and oatmeal cereal. Tavi ate some spaghetti and french fries. She liked it.

Now Yana is sleeping, and Tavi and I might go walk around the hotel. .... Tavi is doing great. She is the sweetest little bugger! And she remembered me! I really couldn't believe it! She even remembered the games we played adn the songs we sang! At 4 years old I find to remember someone whom you met for 10 hours, 5 months ago amazing!

Yana is doing great too. She can't walk, but she will stand and walk holding hands intentionally. She raises her arms to be picked up, and she doesn't let go of toys just because Tavi wants her too. I find all that really encouraging!!

There is so much I could say. But some emotions can't be put into words. Thank you Jesus, you got us here and my girls are no longer without a family!

The only other thing I can think to say is "WATCH OUT WORLD, HERE THEY COME!" :)
