We made it to Taiwan! I can honestly say that was one of the longest
days ever! We started at 5 am and arrived at our apartment about 27
hours later. The hardest part was our long flight, 13 hours, which we
thought would never end. Bridgette for the most part did well and was
only fussy a few times. Flying with her was more difficult than before since she wanted to play and kick. She loved the windows:
We had a long layover in Chicago, so Carrie picked us up and we went to lunch with her and the boys. Eli loved holding "Baby Bridgette". It was nice to break up the day of travel by getting out of the airport.
Sunday, our first day here, we went to church which is right next to the temple. As soon as I unpacked Bridgette from her carrier, an older missionary couple came and picked her up and went around the chapel showing her off and telling everyone how cute she is. They love our white baby with big blue eyes!
We've had two very rough nights with Bridgette waking up all the time and crying. Hopefully we all get adjusted to the time zone (12 hours difference) and caught up on sleep soon!
Tyler is in heaven and is loving it here. His Mandarin is coming back and he cannot get enough of the food (I sadly can...) Tyler started working at the hospital this morning and will work there for 3 weeks.
I will keep posting what we've been up to, but mostly it will be Anna, me and the babies playing at home and walking around Taipei.

On our little 6 hour trip to Boston I kept thinking about you guys. Glad you all made it. Can't wait to here about all your adventures!
I'm glad you made it in one piece. :) I'm excited to hear about your adventures too! And you should have gotten a picture of the missionary couple showing off your baby. :)
So glad you made it! Hope poor Bridgette is able to adjust. It was fun to see you guys. I am so jealous you are spending time there, have fun!
Hope you're taking lots of pictures! I'm so glad you guys get to be there. You should learn "shi, shi, shi, shi" when you are there!
