Happy, Happy Annabella




I've had so many of my JOH friends write to ask how Annabella is doing, that I thought I better post some new pictures. She is doing great....although she is sick today. One of her brothers was nice enough to share his germs and give her his illness...oops! Annabella has been sleeping through the night and adjusting very well to daytime naps and routines. We have stayed at home for most of the two weeks that she has been home with us--trying to have as much family time as we can. The boys have had so much fun with her and she just adores them! She is also eating very well. She was thrilled to begin eating solid foods once I introduced them to her. Her favorites are bananas and green beans!
We were spoiled when I returned home from Taiwan as our WONDERFUL friends brought us dinner night after night. We have the most amazing support system here! Thanks to my wonderful friends, neighbors, and family for all of your help during this transition in our lives.
I'll try to post again in the next few weeks with new pictures.
