What a glorious feeling to have everyone in our home! Jonah was a World Class traveler and slept for 8 hours on the flight from Hong Kong to LA. We celebrated Christmas as a family on Saturday and it was an absolute blast watching Jonah get to know the rest of his family. He is still not quite sure what to make of the cold and snow, but he will come around after a few more more nights sleeping outside.
Speaking of sleeping, he is a CHAMP. The past two nights he has slept through the night for 11 or 12 hours without waking up. Considering this is his first time sleeping alone in a room, we are really excited about that.
In addition, he has miraculously discovered a love for food. There is something about high chairs that inspires kids to eat. Take this evening for example; a bowl of sweet potatoes (leftover from our Christmas dinner), bread, a yogurt and a banana. In Vietnam we were lucky to get him to eat an orange.
All in all, we are flabbergasted at how well he is adapting. If you have not met him yet, I hope that you can soon.

It's great to hear that Jonah is doing so well. His friend, Julia, is doing pretty well, too. We'll have to reunite them soon.
Take care and we'll talk soon!
