Numbering Days

On Day 1, Alina took her first breath.

On Day 2, she gave us her first smile.

On Day 3, Alina checked out of the hospital and into the lovely home of Kent and DarLee.

On Day 4, Alina got her first hair bow.

On Day 5, Alina stayed up late to play the Great Dalmuti with LW, her mom Teena, friends Kip and April and of course with mom and dad.

On Day 6, Alina enjoyed the cuddles while LW, mom, and dad played games over at Uncle Eric's and Aunt Cheryl's home.

On Day 7, Alina went to church for the first time--in her darling dress.

On Day 8, Alina enjoyed her formula while mom and Dad had a truly Minnesoooohtan experience of eating a Juicy Lucy at the 5-8 club.

On Day 9, Alina was introduced to the Cheesecake Factory--and somehow the food still tasted like formula to her! (However, it was super yummy to Mom and LW.)

On Day 10, Alina said goodbye to our wonderful host family, Kent and DarLee Anderson.

 On Day 11, Alina arrived home to Alaska.
