More bath pictures.
Bath Time...
Zachary wanted to be apart of the bath. It is amazing how much Zachary has grown in the last 5 years. Yikes!
Bath Time...
Mama...what did you put in my bottle?!?!
Walking with Tina.
More Walking...
And still more walking. For Halloween, might consider the Energizer-bunny costume.
And More Walking...
Ok, its 5:30pm and I've been good and helpful. But now I need some REAL play time. Everyone, watch out!
Play Time...
Shaking a rattle that Zachary gave her in the play room.
Playing a tune...
Time to hang with Dad. It has been said that when the Dad lays on the floor, he never lays alone.
Dad Time...
Our first AND ONLY bout of jealousy. Eric's the dad and he says it stops NOW!!! Well, maybe in his dreams. Zachary needed some wrestle time. Renée saw this and did not like it one bit. Eric brought her to him but did not send Zachary away. Renée got over it and (in the picture) is playing her rattle for baba.
Dad Time...
A Dad sandwich, hold the rattle.
Dad Time...
Its 6pm. Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines.
First Dinner...
Renée was really hungry and ate a lot. Here she seems to be reaching out to speed up mama's hand.
First Dinner...
Zachary is enjoying some sushi and Sprite. hmmmmm!!!
First Dinner...
Did we say that she kept eating...
First Dinner...
Zachary and Kendyl, who also adopted a younger sister today, are having some kid time. What they are doing is beyond an adult's comprehension.
Kid Time...
We think this is some form of child communication and rejoice that they are the leaders of tomorrow.
Kid Time...
Though she skipped her nap, she succumbed to the night. A full tummy, sleepy eyes and soft songs by mama were too much for her.
Nigh-night Time...
Nigh-night...
Nigh-night Time...
Though a little disappointed that he had to go to bed at the same time as Renée, he too succumbed to the night.
Nigh-night Time...
Sleeping beauty...need a mother or father say any more?
Nigh-night Time...
So we threw her into bed...at least it looks that way. Thus far she has slept solid, waking up once. She cried because we think she did not know where she was. After holding her for about 10 minutes we laid her down. After she intently starred at Eric, Tina and Zachary (in that order), she rolled over and went to sleep. As with many adoptees, Renée went to sleep touching the bars of her bed so as to feel her boundaries. We are very very thankful for this easy first night's sleep thus far...we had planned for far worse.
Nigh-night Time...
