Today (Sunday) marks one week that Sentayehu has been home. She has been a very active baby in the past 7 days. She's been to Mickey D's, Ruby Tuesdays, Walmart, Babies R US and even to a 4th of July BBQ where she was a hit! She is sleeping through the night with just one wake up for food. She takes two morning naps and a cat nap in the afternoon.
I have noticed some big changes since I first met her. For example, she wasn't able to bear weight on her legs at all two weeks ago. Now she is able to stand while I hold her hands. She is also rolling over and trying to pull herself up to a sitting position when I hold her hands. My mom insists that her hair has grown. It is hard to tell when I see her all the time so I will take some pics to document it.
As far as food goes - in Ethiopia she had only had rice cereal and formula. This weeks she's tried (and liked) peaches, sweet peas, oatmeal and banana. However, it is near impossible to get a Cheerio into her mouth.
Cousins Ryan and Ren, Lilly and Grace (esp Ryan) love her. And she loves them. Ryan shows her how to do the activies on the exersaucer. She likes to watch Ryan. I am hoping that she will copy the things she is doing.
