HOME SWEET HOME...
I can’t believe we have been home for a little over a month already. The time is just flying and Mia is doing fantastic. She is adjusting to her life remarkably well and is such a happy child. I’m sure you can tell by the pictures.
After being off work for 7 weeks I headed back to work April 6th and what a tough day that was, I missed Mia all day and couldn’t wait to pick her up from daycare. We have been going for two weeks now just getting her use to it and she really seems to enjoy it. Mia has turned into a mama’s girl, though she gets really excited when Scot comes home from work. She has gotten used to our dogs, Tinkerbell, Tigger and Daisy which is quite a relief. They follow her everywhere; I think Tink thinks she is her mother-Sometimes she will pet them on the head ever so nicely.
Mia absolutely loves being outside. Whether it is a ride in the stroller, playing at the park or walking in the back yard watching the boats go by, she is happy as can be. She loves to dance to her music and play with her little people and puzzles. She is still a good sleeper and is taking naps now and sleeps about a 1 ½ hours. We are having no problems figuring out what she needs. She will belt out a “ma-ma” if I get too far away and she does a lot of finger pointing to let me know what she wants. We think she may be a lefty; she seems to always favor that hand when eating and drawing.
She also says (in Chinese) Ba-Ba /Da-Da. She loves to call our dog Daisy and she says pretty, ball and uh oh. She says uh oh a lot. She is also a pro at feeding herself, both with finger foods and a spoon and fork. Her favorite foods are noodles, rice, scrambled eggs, bananas and watermelon. Mia isn’t interested in television, though she will watch some Teletubbies off and on. Trust me, it’s worth it to get some dishes and laundry done or get food on the table.
We feel so blessed to have this beautiful, fun loving little girl in our lives and are enjoying every minute.
