Angele and I had to say goodbye today. She met us at the hotel and we had breakfast together and took some family Christmas pictures and it was time to go. Angele hates to be away at Christmas and I really feel for her. She loves Mei Lin soooo much, it was very hard to see her walk away.
We enjoyed our days together though...and we have been very busy!! Daniel looked after Mei Lin for us...and we went shopping! It was nice to have this time together.
Mei Lin loves her Auntie Angele and I think they bonded very well. Angele...we will see you again soon enough. And I will post lots of pictures so you don't miss a moment!
Mei Lin is doing wonderful! She learns something new everyday. She now blows kisses! And waves good-bye...and mumbles her own version of the words!
She loves brushing her teeth and putting barrets in her hair has become part of her routine...she will bring them to me and put her head down so I can put one in!!
She is still having sleeping problems...but I think they will eventually work themselves out.
One evening she was just unconsolable...so we just sat on the floor and rocked back and forth...she cried...and I cried with her.
We have many challenges ahead, communication seems to be our biggest problem right now. She doesn't know any other way of communicating with us other than crying and thrashing about. We are working on it though! She is extremely smart and cathes on very fast.
We are hopping on the plane back home tomorrow...we will eventually land in Charlottetown on Dec 2 at 4:45! It will be so nice to be home! We are soooo ready to go!
Here are some more pics of Mei Lin...and we will see you all soon!
PS..Carolyn...come visit us and we can talk about tips for your trip!! Thinking about you!! - Nat
