P.S. Miss Hannah slept through the fireworks without stirring a bit. She had just had her 9PM bottle and was very sleepy. For people paying attention to the audio, you may note that I start counting down about 5 seconds too late... The "Live" TV broadcast that we were watching must have been delayed!
Happy New Year!

Don't you just love watching her sleep-- I remember when mine were first born, I could just lay next to them and watch them forever.. then so sweet to see them smile first thing in the morning...
ReplyDeleteyou are lucky she takes a paci..A close friend of mine adopted 2 from China and at 9 months tried to get them to take one, not as easy as trying to teach a newborn to take one-- did you know ahead of time? so prepared the 2 of you already with a cute paci keeper!!

Happy New Year to you all!!!! LOVE the video of Taipei 101, wow, that is fabulous!!!!! They know how to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteWhat a doll. Sound asleep! Isn't she a dream come true? Happy New Year to you too - it will be one of the best years ever for your family!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Those fireworks were awesome! Kind-of scary there coming off one of the tallest buildings like that but way cool:)
ReplyDeleteSo, are you enjoying the future?! :-) As long as it has Hannah Claire in it, I'm sure. 2009 is a fresh whole new year with amazing possibility for your family; I'm thrilled for the three of you!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get that adorable paci clip? We still have not purchased any and we keep losing them or they get incredibly dirty! Just need to find the time to get one!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Are you ready to come home yet?
Happy New Year! How awesome is it to be there to see that! You know this is a trip you will never forget.
ReplyDeleteWow that is just amazing to watch.
ReplyDeleteThank you guys so much for the footage and sharing it with all of us! It's hard to believe that we will be bringing in the New Year in about 9 hours.
Happy New Year!

That is so cool- I feel like I can now go to bed after seeing those fireworks...it is 9 pm in the Hoosier state and this new mommy is exhausted!!!
ReplyDeleteok, so I didn't have time to watch the video earlier but wow, oh wow, I had goose bumps just watching it! So cool! Did everyone have to evacuate or could people watch from inside 101? might be a dumb question...
ReplyDeleteThank you for such wonderful entries during your trip to Taiwan. Hannah is a gorgeous gorgeous baby and I'm enjoying every picture of her and her parents. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWow - I watched this last year and we got our referral on January 2nd. How amazing that you are with your daughter watching that from the Hyatt!!!!! What a way to start 2009! Talk about fireworks - outside your room and in. Congratulations - beautiful baby, beautiful life.
