Some basic things she has learned to do:
Suck on a bottle
Smile when smiled at
Give Kisses and hugs
dance
empty 2 tupperware drawers
climb
Crawl
She sleeps at night about 9ish hours and for an hour during the day. Of course, there are the occasional catnaps in the car!
Speaking is slow, but she can sign: more, all done, come here, no-no--not exactly ASL but sort of a modified version of such. Words she tries hard at: Baba, Lily, more, Maggie, up. Her receptive language is amazing. She understands much more. This is normal for little ones acquiring a new language, and she will have problems, most likely due to her cleft, but she is making some pretty good consonant sounds, like guh and ck. We are working on puh.
It's really nice to be home and back to business as usual (only new and improved). The holidays were fun,but.........a little crazed. I have had a cold forever and Jadyn just got over her second ear infection, so we have missed church and a couple of other outings, but it's so nice to be able to sit back and enjoy Jadyn. She keeps us all on our toes and she just adores Shannon and Austin.

Our niece, Paige, took this picture and customized it. So sweet! Thanks Paige! Winter Fun! Hanging with Mama. She's actually pulling Shannon's hair here. Sisterly love! Soooooo Big! |
I agree, we are blessed beyond belief.
