It's been four weeks since Melaina has been home.
She's come a long way in that short amount of time.
When we met her in China, she could not crawl.
She's not only crawling, she's on all fours!
And quite proud of herself
She had no idea how to use a spoon or fork.
We showed her in China & now she's a rock star feeding herself!
She loves popcicles
She has mastered getting on & off the kid chair.
This has been a big deal. Two weeks ago, if we set her on the chair, she would be so scared, she'd shake & cry.
Loves tea parties with her big sis!
Her smile is infectious!
Melaina's walking has improved significantly.
We had the Early Intervention program come to our home & evaluate her a few weeks ago. She will qualify for services, but we haven't heard back if it's PT, OT or both.
Since they've been here, she's standing up on her own & taking a few steps. Of course, no photos because we're making a HUGE deal about it when she takes these steps.
It's amazing to see her progress in such a short amount of time.
She's definately coming out of her shell & we're seeing that China personality shine.
Although she's taken a while to warm up to us, it's been worth the wait.
She's such a calm, peaceful, sweet baby girl.
She loves her big sisters & I think she loves us!
So glad to hear that she is doing so well. Of course she loves you, it shows in her smile. Blessings
