So Cute...

Hey everybody! We had a great couple visits with Mia. She is so sweet. We had to go buy a teether, a pacifier, some diapers and a sippy cup. We were without supplies for a 7 month old! It was a lot of fun playing with her today. She seems really smart and transitioned from one activity to the next with no problem. We have only heard her cry once when she was being dressed. Other than that, she is really easy going. She gets pretty hot in the clothes they put her in. When we pick her up, she is always dressed in multiple layers. They make us put a hat on her too! I guess they are afraid she will get sick. So, we try to open the windows in the gym room, but get scolded by the doctor when we have more than one open at a time! We’ll have to get her straightened out when we get to the US!

It has been about the same climate here as it is at home.We moved to a nicer apartment today. This is our 3rd since we have been in this city. We are now the only family here with our agency.

We find ourselves eating at the same restaurants everyday. There are 2 we frequent regularly for lunch and we have been jumping around for dinner. We want to taste what they have to offer. We ate at a really nice Korean place last night. I am sure we will go back, and I will get some pictures. It is called the Red Dragon, and was very ornate inside. We are fixing something to eat here in the apartment tonight, I am not quite sure yet what that will be though! ;)

Mia sure likes her daddy already. They hammed it up all afternoon. She likes to play with his whiskers and put her fingers in his hair! We showed her the scrapbook I made her today and she went nuts over the shiny cellophane sleeves. They are pretty and seemed to sparkle in the light. She was also chewing on his finger trying to cut some teeth!

Well, enjoy the pictures and tune in tomorrow for new updates. We are homesick as ever and miss the kids at home so bad. I have cried over them everyday since we have been here!

Miss you and love you-

Sonja (and Gavin)
