Thursday's Visit

Another great visit with "The Princess" today. Every day she comes out of her shell more. When I went back to pick her up, she began to open her eyes almost immediately. By the time I got out to Kevin and Josh, she was "talking". Now.... for some reason the photos came out blurry today. I'm so disappointed because they are TOO FUNNY. But, I'm going to post them anyway. The grandparents need their fix.

OH... it's you again. I know you!
You make me smile.
How have you been? Have you been keeping the parents in line?
HA!HA! I didn't think so.
OH MY GOODNESS, you brought me diapers and vitamins? That's so great!

Oh, look, it's my mama!
She's talking that funny talk to me.

She sure smiles a lot at me.

OH, what is this?? Oh, it's all those kisses from all those people who said, "Give her kisses from me." I think she got all my kisses.

Hey, I liked that, do that some more -- I'll pucker!

AND THEN, she started sucking on my finger. We asked Aliya if we could have a pacifier. They brought one out that was HUGE, but she didn't care, she took to it and wouldn't take it out of her mouth until time to eat. She LOVED IT!!! Josh thought it was funny that it was like a suction cup in her mouth. He'd give it a tug and she'd suck harder. She wasn't letting it go!

Ahhh... yes.

Tiny tootsies!
We were allowed to feed her today. This girl eats like a champion. 100 ml in less than five minutes.

After lunch, sleeping on daddy's chest. Isn't that a peaceful look?

And so... another day is passed. We don't get to see her tomorrow but are going to the mountains for a little "day trip". We will be back to see her Saturday and Sunday. I'm taking her a smaller pacifier, that's for sure.
