So it is way past my bedtime...Jen and Hannah are long gone in their dreams and I am close behind. I wish I could type more tonight but I am just to tired. In short, it was an awesome day. Hannah did wonderful at the doctor's office, if you can call it that. It was like a mass herd of cattle being rushed through nursing stations to measure and check vitals, check her hearing (grossly, not with precision), and ENT (ears, nose, throat) exam (most abbreviated I've ever seen), and a TB skin test. Kinda of a joke if you as me, as a medical professional. We did A LOT of shopping today. Many gifts bought at the little shops on the island. I had a great day with Hannah. She is trusting me more and more each day. We spent almost a half hour together on the outdoor playground at the hotel. It was AWESOME! She also let me feed her, dress her, and I even got a couple of kisses from her today!! Deep down I knew she couldn't resist her daddy's kisses. We are still working on the language barrier, but that too gets better everyday. She is an absolute peanut and busy body all at the same time. I love her to death!!
First time in an airplane!!!
