That blood curdling scream you heard a few hours ago was our Lily girl having her first full fledged tubby time. To say it didn't go smoothly would be an understatement! Luckily we were able to convince hotel security we weren't torturing our little sweetie ;-)
After a kind of rocky morning where Lily spent most of the time kind of checked out we had a great afternoon! Lily smiled and laughed and had a lot of fun playing with me and Daddy!

Now that I have stopped crying, I cannot stop smiling. I never thought I would see my brother changing a diaper. I have to wonder when or if the Parrott gag reflex will kick in. I'm glad Tony called and told me about the blog, it's wonderful to be able to see your adventure as it unfolds. I cannot wait to hold my niece!
Take care of yourselves and your beautiful bundle.

WOW! TJ is absolutely glowing.
John wanted to thank Tony for the full frontal picture, but says, Dude!, she's your wife.
Oh my goodness Tony & T.J.... I haven't checked in in a few days...

My eyes are tearing up as I'm writing, because I already know how much you love your beautiful daughter...I am so, so happy for you!
I can't wait to meet little Lily!

Thanks for the update...Lily's little face after her bath, welcome to parenthood. Have fun! Laura
I love reading this. You should save this and publish a "Girlfriend's Guide to Chinese Adoptions". I can't wait to meet her, think she'd enjoy a girl's nite out?

I thought only my granddaughter and grandson could put such a big grin on my face. Wrong! Watching your family discovering one another has been an absolute tonic to a tough couple of days. God bless each of you and safe trip. Love,

I thought I heard something but wasn't sure if it was Lily or not. LOL! TJ your face could light up the whole East Coast, just pure unadulterated joy. Thank you again to you, Tony & now, Lily for sharing this experience.
Love, Mo
