Yay!  Jyla's playing in the bathtub!  In China her baths were......horrendous!  She wouldn't sit in the water & just screamed & screamed.  We had her watch Addalie play in the tub & tried to get them in together...but Jyla would have nothing to do with it. 
When we got home, we tried again the first night & what do you know....Jyla was OK with it.  She actually enjoyed it & didn't want to get out until *all* of the water was out of the tub!  Silly girl!  She keeps us guessing!

Things are going well.  Daytimes are better.  Jyla is attaching to me more.  She often wants to be held.
Night times have continued to be rough.  Although last night Jyla had a GREAT 3 hour stretch (11-2)!  (Unfortunately Addalie was up during those 3 hours, so I still didn't sleep until 5am.)  Addalie had a RAGING fever all night...& still a bit today.  Not sure what is going on?  Please pray for her. 

I have seen & been reminded of God's faithfulness in prayer!  When we were in China every time that I specifically mentioned a prayer request on our blog....it seemed like God granted it.  So, even though I know HIS answers aren't always the way we intend them to be.....THANK YOU for praying for us & specifically for Addalie as she is running high temps!

Angie the adjustment of time difference is rough, the kids will probably adjust before you and Scott. When lee and I were in New Zeland and Au the time diff was 16 hours ahead and for some reason it didn,t take long to adjust there but once home was so different. Take heart, you will soon be back to normal.Blessings to your family.
