1 Week Home, Hard to Believe

April 11, 2012
Wow, it is hard to believe we have been home a week now!!!!  We are all doing great!  We are just trying to get a routine and figure things out.  Emery is doing so well.  She isn't saying a lot of English words yet but she will let you know what she wants!  She will come get your hand and take you to what she wants!  If she's hungry she will get her bib and lead you to her chair, if she wants to go out she will lead you to the door!  She is saying, ma-ma, da-da, bye-bye, shoe, boo and she "babbles" all the time!  I know she is going to pick up on the English really quick!!!!

This morning we went to Wal-Mart for her first time, well at least in the States!!!  It wasn't near as crazy as the China wal-mart thankfully!!! No flat chickens!!!  So we got a few things there and she was ready for a nap.  After her nap we got Allie off the bus and then went to Burger King to collect receipts for Woodard school.  She was pretty happy hanging out there!  She got to eat and visit with people!  After we got home Allie took her walking up  the street while I fixed dinner.  Tony and Conner were at the Varsity school game!

We tried feeding her from the table but she doesn't love our food yet.  She did eat mashed potatoes a little, but no mac-n-cheese yet!! LOL!! Not sure why she doesn't like that!  So I fixed her a Gerber Grad meal and she ate it pretty good!

The kiddos got to playing with her after dinner and she thought they were so funny!  Tony was putting his hands on his cheeks and yelling and she was copying him back, she is too funny!!!!

It has been a great week home!!!! We are so happy to be here and have her with us!!!

Love,
Renee
