We were so very excited to see Nicole today. I guess if it wasn't for our Post Placements today, it may not have happen. The girls seem to be playing well together, but Nicole was a bit pushy with Emma at all times. She's lived in an Orphanage longer then Emma and had to fight i'm sure over toys. But, Emma did very well - she shared her toys and let Nicole play with what she wanted and she moved on.
Nicole, wanted nothing to do with any toys for a very long time. I (Mom) went over to the toy room with Emma and we showed Nicole how to play with things. Nicole after she got on the zebra was very happy playing and riding it.
Then we spent a good hour or more in the pool. Nicole is finally use to the water, as she is with her bathes and loved the water.
Our girl being just as silly as always! And yes, she did that!
After our fun day, and because we eat sharp at 5pm...we all headed over to subway!
I'm looking forward to our next play date! Now that they have come up, I think AnneMarie sees the importance of having the girls together. We plan on doing a Mommy and Daughter day! I also suggested that Todd and Howie do a Father/Daughter day!
I was so very happy, by the time they left that Nicole, not only gave me one kiss - but 3 with a smile. She did crawl between me and her Mommy, kept touching my leg and even climbed up on my lap.
What a fun day! It looks like Nicole is slowly, but surely coming around. She's still a peanut.
ReplyDeleteHow are AnneMarie and Howie doing? Has "reality" set in yet?
Hugs,
