Avika at 3 Months

Here is Avika home three months!

 
She is still doing very well.  We have some nights were she sleeps through the night- we are working toward everyone in the house sleeping all night.  Wouldn't that be great?  I'm excited that she is eating almost anything we try with her.  Miles is back to being our pickiest eater! 
 
Reading books in her room she shares with Delia

 Avika spends a lot of time in the car with me- dropping off/ picking up the kids and running errands.  She has started making a lot of noise while we drive around.  It's all babbling, but it sounds like she is singing songs or telling me a story.  We are anxious for her to add to her one word vocabulary, but she will come around when she's ready!  I am constantly amazed by how much she understands considering she has only been hearing English for three months now.  She seems very bright and I don't doubt she'll be talking before we know it
It's hard to remember life without Avika as part of our family.  It feels like she had been with us for much longer than three months.  Even the older kids have commented on this.  We are getting some routines down to help life run more smoothly.  I am challenged to be more patient and gracious with this little girl.  Amazing how a two year old can push my buttons!  I am grateful for all of her personality, though,  and that she feels safe enough with us to share it with us!
