Dragging On

We are just plum tired of being here. Tired of the having to eat every meal out without the benefit of a high chair, napkins, or knives. Tired of our small hotel room. Tired of people aggressively selling sunglasses, postcards, and balloons. Tired of risking our lives every time we cross the street. We don't mean to complain and we love having nothing to do but bond and enjoy our new daughter. We know our way around really well now. When we needed a new nipple for our Avent bottles, we knew exactly where to go to buy one.

We didn't get an INS interview on Friday so now it will be Tuesday at the earliest that we get in. Then another day for an approval and 2-3 days in Hanoi for a visa. The flight we have booked for Friday doesn't have any bassinet seats available so we may have to hold Sara for 14 hours. She doesn't like to be restrained for a minute.

Here is Sara's first sushi experience. She threw food on the floor and dumped a glass of water all over daddy and onto the floor. The waitresses just glowered at us. This is the first place Sara has been where she didn't make any new friends.
One of the shopping plazas had a babysitting service . Instead of leaving Sara there, we played with her for a couple of hours. She enjoyed rocking in the police car and she got acquainted with Winnie the Pooh and friends.


Mommy has even been sharing makeup tips with the little one.
Since Sara fell asleep in the Baby Bjorn, daddy was forced to take a nap with her.
