And this is how the story ends

So here are some pictures from our hotel room in Hong Kong. It had a
great view.

Zoe was in a good mood and playing with Laura. Somewhere along the way
she picked up a bun in a plastic wrap and carried it all the way home on
3 planes and through 4 airports across 24 hours. She was a trouper - we
really can't complain. She got fussy when the play took off and landed
from the pressure in her ears and when she got hungry for a bottle, but
was otherwise in a good mood throughout the trip.

We got in around midnight and crashed. No one has told Zoe about the 12
hour time difference, so Laura was up much of the night since I had to
got to work for an 8:30am meeting. Thankfully, Grandma and Grandpa where
here to help out and help us get some sleep to recover from the trip.
Zachary has been a great big brother and has tried to be helpful and
been giving her hugs and kisses, but when she's crying, its still a bit
scary to her. Ellie and Rupert have also been good to her, and she has
reached out to pet them a couple of times.

Zoe goes to the pediatrician tomorrow, but seems a happy, healthy little
girl.

Next up is filling out some paperwork to re-adopt her in VA so the state
will issue her a birth certificate. It will make her life easier when
she grows up.
