Monday December 7th 2009 -- HERE'S OUR GIRL
Again the internet is crazy here and cannot get the blog to work. Note to Amanda please share this with Amber and Joe. Ok, so we go into the room and she has so much pink on, LOL!!!! The poor little thing is in a state of shock, it was pitiful. After all the paperwork was done, the orphanage Dr. and director gave us a bunch of things including the clothes she was found in, soil from the orphanage, and a baby book that they made up amongst many other treasures. So thankful for their kindness and taking such good care of our little girl. So, when we get back to the room she probably cried for about an hour and that was it. Eric totally got her out of her shell, by the end of the day she was feeding us, giving us kisses, giving us hugs while patting our back, and laughing/playing. She is an absolute doll, her cleft is worse than what we expected but she will be in good hands. To see what this little girl has gone through just to survive is amazing, her eating abilities and her happiness is absolutely amazing. She is making wonderful eye contact and reaching for us, she sleeps wonderfully in her crib and she eats. Anyone that knows Aidan, this is funny because she eats in one meal maybe what he eats in one day and she'll eat anything. If she wants something she'll let you know as well as tell you if she doesn't. She can't stand baby dolls right now, but loves bracelets and things that make noise. Jenna she loves to carry her glasses around that you gave her. Oh yeah she loves to give high fives and thinks it's hilarious to make an awwww noise after she drinks water. Enjoy the pics this is our little princess:) Sandy should have pics for you later today:)
