OUR LAST UPDATE - Six Months Old


This is the very last update we will receive of Faith until we hold her in our arms. Isn't she the sweetest/cutest thing in the world! She only weighs 14.1 pounds in this picture so we think she will be almost 15 pounds when we bring her home, if we are lucky. She seems to only be putting on a half a pound each month if that. Such a little thing. She is so precious! It won't be long now until we hold her in our arms. I will hug her, love her, and NEVER/EVER let her go!


Everything seems so unreal at this moment. I try and tell Lindsay that we need to really enjoy this last week we have together alone but even knowing this it just seems as if life is just going to begin for real once we pick her up. We have three more days to finish up our packing (which we just begun tonight). I have washed all of Faith's close and have started getting all of her things together. Once her stuff is all done we hope to pack our items on Tuesday and Wednesday night and then WE ARE OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The day is drawing near and it is the most amazing adventure we have and will ever be on. I wouldn't want to be sharing this moment in my life with anyone other then my very best friend and husband Lindsay. I love him with all of my heart and I can not wait to start our family together.

YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe it is here, the anticipation is killing me, and I'm not even the one going through it. You guys enjoy your trip and most of all enjoy your new daughter.

I talked to Mandi this morning when they finally arrived at their hotel in Taipei. It was 8:30am in SLC, and 11:30 pm in Taiwan. They were both exhausted from the very long flight. Also a little shaken up because thier luggage did not arrive in Taiwan with them. They ended up having to change flights because of a delay, and they wouldn't have made their connection in LA. that is propbably what mixed up the luggage. Anyway, they are hoping to get their stuff before they have to return to the airport to leave for Tainan, when they get up Sat. morning. Only 34 hours until they are holding Faith in their arms! WOW!

Mandi called early this morning. It was Monday night in Taipei, and they had just flown back there after spending the day at St. Lucy's. The proud parents are very happy!! Faith went right to both Mandi & Lindsay, and she has the sweetest, most loving personality. of course Mandi thinks she is even more beautiful than her pictures, and so far everything is going very well. They will enjoy the next few days getting to know Taiwan, and gearing up for the long trip home. We are all very anxious, and excited to meet them at the airport, and welcome Faith home!!
