We have now been home for two weeks (as of Saturday) and things are feeling very "natural" . IT really is amazing how this little girl just fits our family.
Last week we spent most of the time at home getting into a routine. We had a break between activities with no scheduled places to be.
We have Meina on a nice daily schedule now. She still takes two naps and sleeps 12 hours at night with one diaper change at around 10pm otherwise she is soaked in the morning. I mean PJ's, blankets, sheets, and whatever else is in the crib. We are using Huggies, which worked just great for Ramzie, but they leak all the time on Meina. Part of the problem is she is so long and lean. The size 3 are way too lose on her legs and abdomen. We did not have issues with the Pampers in China, so I guess, I will go get some here and try them. We are still working on getting Meina to pull up and sit down. She will just lay in her crib on her back and not even try to get up. She is talking more.... at least making sounds. She has a few words that are clear like Mama, Ellie and dada. She can walk with a finger to hold, and loves music.
Over the weekend we had some of our friends over and Ramzie had a blast playing with their daughter. She and Tia gave us a real concert American Idol style!
This week summer activities kick into gear. Ramzie is starting swim lessons and gymnastics and the summer reading program begins also. She is really excited and it will be fun to watch her progress. The other thing we are planning is to try to phase out her naps in the afternoon. She is like clockwork with them, so it may be a challenge. She likes her beauty sleep!
Here are a few random pics of the week.
I love the ones of the two snuggling on the couch watching Nemo.
We have nothing exciting to report other than we are just enjoying our lives as a complete family.
Best,
Joanie
