Davis is coming out of his shell little by little. He still cries for his foster mother during the night when he sleeps (so sad) he will cry when he first wakes up, after his nap, and at night before bed. But the in between times he is great. It will just take some time. We know this, but it is still so hard to watch at times. He loves to get in the stroller and go out anywhere. He hates it when we come back to the room and you take him out. Then it is melt down time. We met some other famlies from other countries adopting Chinese children. They were ajusting very well. Wonder if it is because they had other children to play with in their families. One little girl who I thought was around 8 months old, turned out to be 14 months. She was just the tinest thing. These other families told us some places to go and take Davis, and things he would like to eat. Today we went back to the big park. It is such a nice park. And it is really big. So many people walking, excersing, playing games etc. We were so impressed at the older ones and I mean older, playing these games. Makes us look pretty bad as far as being in shape back in the U.S. Davis had some things that we call "Firsts" that we are sure he has never had or done before. His little face just lights up. He is so cute the way he tries to imitate David. He watches everything David does and then tries to copy him. If David makes funny sounds at him, he will try to do the same thing. David is soooo good with him. Enjoy the photos.
