Life at home

I wanted to stay faithful to blogging about life with Brielle even after we came up, but real life takes up way more time than I remember!

Overall Brielle has been doing great at home! We are truly loving being at home, and getting into a routine. There are times when we miss Bogota, our slow pace of life, and all the great memories we made there. I can truly say that city will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Here are some things that our girl has been doing lately:
Signing 'more please' for food, and working on 'all done' when she's finished
Loves playing on the piano
Still eating lots, but learning to enjoy her food slowly instead of gobbling it all down
Showing us she needs to go potty by taking off her pants
Pulling up all the time, and showing a strong desire to walk (can't wait to get her a walker, so she can really go!)
First doctor's visit in the US-weighed 28 lbs, and height of 33 inches
Loves playing with Daddy still, but enjoying more snuggle time with Mommy (at first she bonded more with Scott because she only had female caretakers)
Loves being outside
Had lots of fun with her first time painting
Did NOT like being a unicorn for Halloween, but did enjoy the candy
Loves her doggies, and they are very patient with her loving
Babbling all the time, and communicating her needs more and more

I'm sure there are lots more things I could post, but that is a good summary of all the progress she has made. It is amazing to think about how far she has come in three months!
