HOME UPDATE

Hello everyone! Sorry it's been a while but I am still adjusting to life as a Mom of 4! We are back at our apartment and all adjusting well. The kids absolutely adore Gracie and just can't get enough of her! They love to help her walk around, make her laugh, feed her, etc. They have taught her to play peek-a-boo and it's so cute! I think my favorite thing is when we're in the van and the kids are singing at the top of their lungs to the Apologetics or the VBS CD and Gracie tries to chime in! She is an expert crawler and climber and actually took many steps on her own yesterday! It will not be long before she is running! She is doing better with our cat now but still doesn't love him. She looks around for him and says "ca-ca-ca???" I think mostly she just wants to make sure she knows where he is so she can be prepared! The cat wants NOTHING to do with her and is the one who is more petrified now. She says ma-ma and da-da now and is babbling a lot! She loves to go outside and we've already checked out 3 new parks this week! I think her favorites are the swing and slide. We have gone to our pool a few times too and she loves the water too! We have a floatie that she sits in and loves to kick her feet dangling below and watch her siblings jump and swim!

I will update on her heart later this week but please be praying for her as it is much more serious than the cardiologists in China discovered.
