Ever since we got the referral for Anna, Mia has been so excited to have a little sister. We probably told her way to early!
First she thought Anna would be a tiny baby, even though we told her many many times that Anna would not be little. When we got home she tried to lift her. Ha! I can barely lift her. So then when she realized Anna was big, she thought Anna would want to play a lot. She has been disappointed that 20 month olds don't play with other kids, they explore. But she has adjusted and they randomly chase each other around the house.
Anna is sooo much happier since we got home. She smiles all day long. Of course if you had parents on 8 hour shifts that you had to share with 20 other kiddos and now you have parents 24-7, you would be happy too! She lets Dan hold her any time now, but has her ups and downs with Mia. She will give Mia a big hug and then two minutes later get mad if Mia touches her arm. She still doesn't like any strangers.
Life just keeps getting better and better! (Especially since we all slept through the night last night.)
