Sorry for the delay in posting. We've been a little tried chasing around a new 2 year old. :) Ava is having a great time. So much fun in fact that just yesterday she has started screaming and crying when its bed time or nap time - poor thing- I think she doesn't want the fun to end. She loves playing with her siblings, with toys, eating and moving around. Its a little tiring though when she moving because she is lacking some muscle tone and is behind on her gross motor skills so Den or I have to run after her and make sure she doesnt' fall over or smack into something (she is frequently looking up or to the side at something while moving so she has almost face planted into walls, poles etc.). Also stairs kind of happen to her so we have to watch out for that too. Of course she wants to do it herself and doesn't always want to take our hand and living in the land of concrete steps it can be a little stressful at times. :)
She is a good snuggler and has given some good snuggles and even some kisses (usually to Will or Addie- she loves playing with them).
Tomorrow we head to her orphanage for a visit. I don't know what to expect if it will be emotional for her. Pray that all goes well- it is really important that we learn all that we can for her later.
Here are a few photos from the last couple days.
Adoption Day- its official yay!
Picture taken just as we came down from the registry office
Daddy helping Ava eat- she LOVES to eat
Playing in the Bathtub- she loves it! And doesn't mind water running all down her face.
Snacking on her favorite crackers with Big Sis
Daddy helping Ava get on her pink suede boots. Ava will run to the shoe cabinet try to open it and point to the door signaling she wants her pink boots so she can go outside.
Eating Congee at breakfast (common breakfast food here in China- like rice soup- bland) Love that expression on me :)



Totally make congee in my crock pot (yay Asian labmates giving me the good tips) ! Love these photos 8-)
