Our little one is doing great. She is sleeping her crib right now.
We got here yesterday morning and had a few hours before we went to the adoption affairs office to get Molly.
We got there a little early and had to wait a bout thirty minutes. When the Nanny walked in with her, we knew right away it was her, by her cheeks.
She was alert, looking around and seemed happy. Summer went right to her and was kissing her hands. She came right to me and didn't cry at all.
We came back to the hotel and I fed her and changed her and got her out of her 4 layers of clothes because she was sweating. Summer helped me put her pajamas on and we all went to bed. After a good night sleep we all felt much better this morning. We went down and ate breakfast and then had to go back to the adoption office to finish all the paperwork for the adoption. Molly fell asleep and stayed that way most of the time.
The scoop on Molly:
She loves Cheerios, shovels them in one after the other.
She can sit up by herself, but needs help sometimes ( much improved today, not so many clothes on)
She is short and fat. Has very chunky thighs. Wearing size 9 months and 12 months.
She is much more of a "baby" than Summer was. She babbles and Summer taught her to blow raspberries last night.
Her face lights up when she sees Brad.
She has only cried when I change her and lay her down.
I'm haven't been able to make a bottle to her liking yet. She is a good eater though. She has eaten rice cereal, baby peas and sweet potatoes. This morning I gave her bits of bread at breakfast and she loved it. I'm glad to see she ha the dexterity to put food in her mouth and can bang her cups together. I don't feel she is much delayed except physically, which will come.
We are thrilled with her. I kept thinking the whole day today, " what did I do to deserve 2 special babies?"
Molly has a cute little personality and is just adorable. I can't wait to get her home to meet everyone.
