I'm a little confused, as is our baby, Lily. (Middle name Minh, part of her Vietnamese name.) Yes, we finally settled on her name the day before we left Vietnam. We had a gruelling trip home; 76 hours from the time we left our hotel in Hanoi until we walked in the door at home. Spent some unexpected extra time in LA and Chicago due to flight cancellations and delays. We got home around midnight Friday night and we've all been trying to adjust to the time changes and jet lag all weekend.
Lily caught a cold somewhere on the long trek home, but other than that, and her desire to party all...night...long, she's adjusting really well. She was such a good sport in all the airports, hotels, and planes we dragged her through. All the kids were good, considering how tired they all were.
I still intend to post about our last couple of days in Vietnam--maybe this evening after Don gets home from work if I can stay awake--but this quickie update will have to do for now.

Welcome home!
Stacey and Sasha
Welcome home! Minh must be popular in that orphanage, as that is the boy's name too.. and will likely end up his middle name also. Lily is a beautiful name! I think someday Lily and as yet to be named boy need to get togehter and hang out.
Welcome home!!! It is grueling trying to get back on track, especially with the horrible need to sleep all the time, but things should turn around soon!!! Being a mom of many, this should be nothing to you!! :)
Glad you all got home safely. And you finally named the li'l pumpkin!! I LOVE it - Lily is an adorable name!! When you 'recover', give me a call!!! Joni & I want to come see you guys one day soon!!
Hi Everyone!
Bet the weather was a bit of a shock to everyone, not only Lily! We are still in Texas and enjoying our time with Delbert & Bev. It is about 80 degrees and very nice. We're leaving for Corpus Christi tomorrow and will start heading home after sightseeing there. The name Lily is adorbale and seems to fit her and her heritage.
Love,
Nancy & Roger
