It actually seems like we have been home a lot longer than 4months, basically because we can't seem to remember the feeling of Keely not being here.
Ways I know she has attached to us(or is making really good progress in her attaching, so some of you don't freak out about how many years this takes).
She prefers me or my husband; (who endured her complete and utter rejection in the beginning); over others whether at home or out in a public setting.
She gets very excited with squeals when we are driving into the grandparents driveways, but is always ready to come home with mommy and daddy when we leave.
She doesn't seem to require a lot of attention from others who visit or out in public and sometimes can act almost snobby. lol
Has become selective in whom she gives her affections to. ( At first she would kiss just about anyone, but now thankfully knows the difference between acquaintances or family.)
She has become VERY busy like a typical 2yr old, well equipped with an independent spirit and the Nos to go with it. A 13hr flight at this point probably wouldn't go as well as it did 4mo. ago.
She loves her daddy and sometimes prefers him over mama. FINALLY, I know I probably shouldn't be happy over this; but if you could have experienced the beginning; I am soooo thankful for this!
She LOVES the movies Finding Nemo and Tangled.
She loves her Panda, baby Kyah and her blankie. Oh and now a little seal. She has quite the armful when she is off to bed.
She sometimes will sit and let us read to her. Her favorites right now are Gilbert The Great and Goodnight Moon.
Every time she walks in her room and we turn on her new birdcage light she says, "buful ligh". She also says this now with all of the Christmas lights.
Speaking of, here are some pics of her decorating her little tree in her room.
Also one of a lazy Saturday morning snuggling with Dada, Panda, blankie and her new love spotted seal. (Kyah has recently been neglected)
So overall, I think we are doing quite well despite all this little girl has been through in 4 short months. We are very thankful that she is here and that we can celebrate Christmas this year with our little girl.
