Poor Vivian - she has had such a difficult time being able to sleep since she got here. It is probably the change in time zones, but you wouldn't believe what she has had to face! This afternoon she took a nap, and then after half an hour, our fire alarm up on the landing went off! We think it is smoke from the wildfires - I mean no one is burning a wood stove at this time a year. Where else could the smoke come from? So that was the end of her nap. When it was time to go to bed Amy put her in the portable crib and all was well for about 15 fifteen minutes. Then there was a loud crash of thunder! Amy has a baby monitor, and we could hear Vivian crying. Oh no. So Amy waited about 10 minutes, then went and brought Vivian downstairs. Vivian had been crying for a while and her face was red. But sitting on Amy's lap she slowly calmed down and after a while, Amy took her back upstairs to her crib, and so far everything is quiet... Please hold your breath and hope that it goes well for the rest of the night!

I love this photo! You can see the leftover tears in Vivian's eyes and the joy in both of their faces after Amy "rescues" her. I love how Vivian has her fingers cupped around Amy's ear. I hope she was able to sleep afterwards. Trace
Smoke alarms and thunder are the not the way to welcome Amy and Vivian to your home. I feel so bad for her trying to adjust, but love this photo of them. Hope today is a new and relaxing day.
