The Luggage Arrived

Just as the jokes (Weren't you wearing those clothes yesterday?) were getting old, our luggage arrived! Wow, it felt good to put on different pants and shoes and put a little hairspray in my hair! It also felt pretty good to dress Gilli in her own girl clothes! Thanks for praying that our "stuff" would arrive! We were having quite the adventure without it, though! We realized how much we over packed! We didn't really need everything we brought!! :)

Today, we had lunch by the pool! It is beautiful here and warm!! It is so nice to be outside without a coat!

Gilli is doing really well at eating from a spoon! We are feeding her rice and peaches. She also eats bananas, puffs, and cheerios. She can also use a sippy cup pretty well!

Here are a few pics to hold you over until we get home!

Yeah!!!! I prayed and prayed last night that the luggage would come. Your post made me laugh...remember how I told you that we were without luggage the first couple of days when we traveled to Greece a few years ago? Well, a bunch of people from Ben's company kept saying, "oh, you were girl in the green sweater and the guy in the striped shirt." You know you have been wearing the same clothes for too many days when people make comments like that. :)

You all look great together. I just want to give Gilli a squeeze! :)

Hope the Embassy goes well tomorrow and you better post some more pictures between now and when you come home! :)
Love,
Jenny
