This tiny girl is big on personality, just as I assumed from the looks I could see in update photos. She does not talk, only makes noises, but she uses non-verbal communication very well. We were able to Skype with Mom, Elliott, Penny, Kitty, Corgan and Mrs. Shaw last night (how wonderful it was!), and she showed off her "No" hand wave. It's very dismissive (and funny for now).
We are having feeding issues in that she has an unstopable appetite, and I'm trying to ensure she isn't overindulging as a result of orphanage living. She is literally eating more than me at meals, though my nerves are the best appetite suppressant on this earth. She has showed me her temper a few times already, but she's also given us some laughs. There are other times she gets mad for a reason we don't understand, and she starts slamming her toys down. Again, funny for now.
Leah, the other adoptive mom here, lent me a computer charger, so I hope to be back blogging with regular frequency tomorrow. Right now I've gotten out of bed by a call from our local guide to review paperwork, so I guess I better get to it.
