When you adopt a new child, one thing that is different from when you have a newborn is that you can almost immediately take the child to do fun new things. A few weeks ago, we decided to take a day trip to go sledding. We had received saucers and toboggans for Christmas. We found a spot where the kids could go down a hill. Carrie had a great time. She loves to do "fun" stuff like this. (She is getting so grown-up. I took her to the doctor the other day and she is 5'6" and the doctor thinks she will still grow another inch or 2. She certainly got this from the Damstedt side of the family. She also has her grandma Damstedt's big feet.) Actually, Gracie didn't do much sledding. Not sure if it was too scary or what....we don't speak the same language (we are getting there). We brought our stove and cooked Cup'o'noodles and hot chocolate.
