Has it been one month already?
It’s been a month now since we where united with our daughter and she continues to do really well. She is very curious about the things around her, still loves to eat all day long if we let her and truly a two year old if you know what I mean :-)
Sarah has now come to tolerate the cats and dogs around her which makes things less stressful and she is finally starting to have some times when she wakes up in the morning or after her nap and not cries. Her favorite TV show seems to be Elmo lol…. She loves to sing the Elmo song. She kisses and waves Daddy goodbye every morning and she gets very excited when everyone comes back home in the evening or when we go to pick up her brother in the afternoon.
We have about 5 more weeks before I am returning to work but I have a feeling she will be doing just fine. She does not seem to feel out of place at all when we enter the Preschool she will be going to with her brother this summer. She is a climber like her brother and sometimes I think she feels that I am a gym when we sit on the floor. Its quite fun. She likes to be very busy as well. She mimics a lot when she is interested in something and we are working on some signs since she does not like to talk much and when she does I am not sure if it is just simple toddler talk or if she is really saying some things in Chinese.
Of course she can also be very stubborn and much known to her already is tested to extend every day. She loves to imitate me when I get ready in the bathroom and brush my hair etc. It is very funny and cute. She is such a smart little cookie, she brings us a lot of joy and she equally loves to hug and cuddle, on her own terms but she does and that is nice.
Every day we learn new things and every day seems as though she is more comfortable with where she is and who we are as her family and that is a wonderful wonderful feeling.

Time just flies.....
Time flies by when you are having fun. And so much fun and joy it has been since we came back home. Sarah continues to amaze us and we are now officially climbing out of our crib and she stands by the door and this morning she tried to open it. Thank goodness for gates on the stair way. She is quite acrobatic and I think we definitely have to enroll this little one into gymnastics maybe next year not sure when they start here.
I have about 6 more weeks left till I go back to work and between now and then I hope it is continuing to warm up outside and we will have to get a swing set into that back yard. I think this weekend will be a good one to take Sarah and the boys to the zoo. She is getting along with her brothers so well and every day we continue to see more of her strong personality and she is very determined. She just loves music and often we hear her hum songs that we may have sun or listened to earlier that day it is soo cute….lol……… Her favorite is the song from Elmo’s World.
So far there has not been much that she does not like to eat and she still eats a lot, actually this little angel its all the time :-) I have to get some new pictures up soon as well.
We also found out that her cuddle quilt put together from her “fun” squishes is on its way its very very cute I can’t wait for it to get here.
Later this summer we will tackle the task of taking all the Asian inspired squishes and get her twin size quilt done as well.
