Home one Week


We've been home one week and one day already! It's great to say that Lily is doing great! We are getting her sleep pattern adjusted back to what is was in China (if only we could do the same!) Man, is it age or something? it's just taking so long to adjust back to CA time. Our biggest battle so far is trying to get Kaiser health insurance to cover Lily immediately. What a hassle! They don't want to cover her until Oct. 1st even though the OBRA'93 law states they are supposed to. 


What kind of progress has Lily made so far?
  • She's beginning to speak english quite well
  • She has diminished her hitting, hair pulling quite a bit
  • She is coming up to us and giving us big hugs and kisses
  • She is beginning to eat some new foods like Pizza!
  • She is handing us things that she knows she is not supposed to touch (most of the time) although she still can't seem to keep her hands off of computers etc.
  • She has warmed up to the dog to the point where the dog has to run away from her
  • She went on the potty once after waking up from her nap dry
  • She is beginning to show an interest in books, she actually let Christy read her a book today
Overall Lily is doing very well and we can only expect her to do even better next week. Things are going to be a little different when daddy has to go back to work.
