Typhoon Morakot

Even though Lexie is not physically part of our family, I can tell that she's already loved by so many people. A lot of friends and family have been asking if she's okay since there was a typhoon last week in Taiwan. Luckily, she lives in northern Taiwan, so she's safe and sound. Southern Taiwan wasn't so fortunate.

Still no word on whether the social worker in Taiwan has interviewed Lexie's birth mom. We've been waiting very patiently for our monthly Lexie fix. It's been over a month since we've seen her sweet face so we hope we get our update soon. We're definitely going into withdrawals!!

We finally picked up our crib. This is the same crib that we looked at every time we went to Baby Emporium, but we kept saying that we'll wait until we travel to Taiwan. So, Eric & I went on Saturday just to get the name of the crib because our wonderful family said that they wanted to get it for Lexie, but when we got there, it was on sale. It was $110 off, we couldn't believe it. Then, they said that there were only 2 cribs in the color we wanted left in their warehouse and the crib was being discontinued, so when they sold the last 2, they weren't getting anymore in. At that point, we decided to go ahead and buy it. Sorry, Aunty Jodi, but we have lots of other things that you can get for Lexie.
