Getting to Know Each Other






We have been home for almost a week and are getting to know each other. Eliza gets more active every day. Today was her first American Dr. appointment. She is on the North American growth charts! This girl is in the 80% for height. She is not sleeping well at night though. This jet lag is rough on babies and their parents. She is also still not open to baby food. Every day she makes some strides and gets stronger.

She is loving her siblings. Big brother is such a sucker for her and she loves it! She gets so excited when they come home from school. We are all very excited when she does anything new or old. We are now grabbing toys, dropping toys, sitting up better, enjoying our bath (big praise there!), and even putting the occasional toy or parent's finger in our mouth. She is also understanding the words for milk, juice, and the all important kisses! Can you tell we are still in the honeymoon stage (good thing or the sleepless nights would be even harder).

Thanks for the update! I'm so glad she is adapting as well as she is...I take it she lets others hold her besides you, Amy, after seeing the picture of her and her siblings. (So cute!) Hey, we have that same bath seat. Works great! Debi-I can't remember where we got it, but I think it was Babys R Us.
Looking forward to seeing you all a little tomorrow when I bring over dinner!
