We are still here! Just trying to find our groove...Elsa is precious and funny, snuggly and defiant, sweet and sad, all at different times. She is attaching and adjusting, and we are all figuring this out together. We have been spending our days taking care of Elsa, playing with her, and figuring out what works best for her, in terms of meal times, eating in general, and sleeping.
Elsa had been a pretty tough time last week. We thought that it was due to all the changes until I saw that she had several canker sores on her tongue. Poor baby! She picked up a virus in her pediatrician's office. She is also cutting two new teeth which didn't make things any easier for her. She is feeling better now, though.
Elsa has had two trips to restaurants.We are so proud of her. She particularly enjoyed having dinner with her grandparents. Elsa is very taken with her grandpa, Papa Paul. There is a little thing that she does when she likes you and you are "in the club", so to speak. She leans in and touches foreheads with you, eye to eye. It is very endearing. She did that with her Papa Paul the night she met him, right at the airport, and has just loved him ever since. This is a little girl that was terrified of men and has only been around Greg, but she loved Papa Paul right from the start.
Sorry not to have more photos to share. My camera is in the shop. I've gotten a few cute shots with Greg's camera but can't find where I put it. If you saw this place you would know why! Elsa doesn't like my attention diverted for a minute, certainly not for dishes or cleaning the house! Also, Elsa won't cooperate with me taking pictures. As she wants all my attention, she now wants the "toy" I'm playing with.
