Tuesday 7/24

Today was a lazy day. We really just hung around the apartment all day getting to know each other and catching up on our sleep. Ilona, too, has been sick so we started her on antibiotics this afternoon. Hopefully she'll start feeling better soon and won't pass her cooties on to the rest of the family.

We hope to do some shopping tomorrow and also maybe hit the pool.

The girls are a delight. Maia does not cry, she giggles. Ilona will sometimes yell at us but only if we aren't getting her. Ilona seems to have a little more difficulty sleeping. I think the poor little girl might be having some nightmares. I am sure it is a confusing and scary time for them, losing everything they've known and being handed over to strangers who look different, sound different, smell different. They are doing great with the transition.

Plus, on the most amazing side, so far there have been almost no signs of attachment issues. The girls make incredible eye contact with us and follow our voices around the room. They are doing really well.

More tomorrow, or later today if anything of interest happens.

Sorry no more pictures yet today. We'll take some and post either later today or tomorrow.

Love Tina
