Today marks the two month anniversary since Annie and I arrived home and I must say that I am so, so blessed to have this child in my life. I can't think of one adoption related issue that I'm dealing with. She's completed attached to me and the family, she sleeps through the night, for the most part goes down for naps without a problem, is willing to try new foods, has begun to feed herself and is just a complete and total entertainer. She's grown, gained weight and has so much more hair, plus she has stopped scratching her scalp when tired as she did in Vietnam. She loves water of any kind (including the dog's water bowl....sigh) and I'm sure once the weather warms up she'll spend many an hour outside picking flowers, looking at bugs and just experiencing life. I started back to work part time two weeks ago and she's even doing great at day care. The other day I went to pick her up and the kids in her class were outside playing. One of her teachers was blowing bubbles, care to guess whose kid was chasing them? Yep, she didn't care what was in front of her she just wanted to catch one.
