Life has been pretty busy lately... back to school, soccer season, etc. etc. So I'm playing catch up (again)!Sarah has been home for over nine months now... and here's the latest!
1. Sarah loves to dress up. Here she is sporting a pair of Daddy's socks.
2. She is a chatterbox! From the moment she wakes up, the conversation begins. "My cup?" "My bunny (stuffed animal)?" "I wake up!"
3. She has two speeds-- "ON" (as in full throttle) and "ASLEEP". She doesn't miss a thing, watches us very intently, and learns very quickly. This is a tad bit scary at times!
4. Two of her newest phrases are, "I so tired." (we've learned that this one really isn't true! haha) and "I can't." She uses "I can't" when mommy asks her to pick up toys or put her shoes on.
5. Sarah loves Legos and bristle blocks. At first this kind of surprised me. I don't remember any of the boys being interested in blocks before they were around three years old. But Sarah loves them, and they are by far her favorite toys.
Dolls? Not so much...at least not yet. (not for a lack of trying! :)
Sometimes, when I look back on our adoption journey and our time together since we've been home, I can hardly believe we actually DID it! I mean, it sometimes seems so surreal that we hopped on a plane, went to CHINA, and returned home with our daughter-- a sweet, precious child of God! It was such an amazing journey!
So grateful for the opportunity to be parents and to have Sarah be a part of our family!
