Well, it has officially happened! Laikyn is already a daddy's girl. I didn't even get 3 whole days before it happened. She loves being near him. She snuggled up next to him for her bottle today. She cries when he walks away and she giggles for him all the time. (maybe she thinks he's funny looking...hmmm) He kisses on her all the time. (I am starting to get a bit jealous) The only thing he hasn't had the privilege of doing is changing one of her 6 poop diapers!!!!! She tries to do things that he does too. We bought her a stroller at Walmart and she loves going for rides. Of course it has been a bit rainy here, so we have been inside a lot. It is amazing to watch more and more of her personality (and attitude) come out everyday. She has an incredible appetite. We have been exposing her to many American foods, none of which she doesn't like (except yogurt and ice cream). I think we may have to do something about that!!!
We were considering taking her swimming today until we witnessed the "hocker" at the pool. It is custom here to "cleanse" yourself by letting it out wherever you are. So, I think we will hold off on the pool for now. We should be getting Laikyn's passport tomorrow before flying out for Guanghou. (her first plane ride........should be interesting. I think if we have plenty of food, we're ok)
Meanwhile the boys back home are doing well. They went out with grandma to build-a-bear and made their sister a cute little bear. She's wearing "frilly" socks, pink skechers, a jean skirt, and an Ohio State shirt. (what else would we expect!)

Hi Molly and Bill,
ReplyDeleteI am sooo excited for little Laikyn to be joining your family! She is precious. Brings back so many wonderful memories of when Kevin, Becky, Nathan and Oliver went to China to get Lily. Laikyn is one lucky little girl. Praying for your safe journey home.
God's Blessings,
