So sorry it's been so long since last post. We have been staying busy since the boys got out of school. Joy and I are spending a lot of time trying to bond and learn how to play. She is learning a lot. She knows the sign for bottle, more, and bath. We are working on the word "up" and the sign for "please" still. Since coming home Joy has learned to take off and put on the rings on the ring stacker and to stack and knock over blocks. She is very close to walking, but we are still trying to get her to crawl as long as possible which causes the right and left brain to communicate and work together. When we first came home, she crawled a little funny with her feet stuck up in the air. Since coming home, she has started crawling with her left foot closer to the ground. We have been having a hard time with her pulling my hair and grabbing my face and scratching me wherever she can get her hands. We have tried a few different ways to deal with it and it seems we have finally found the best way, to just completely ignore her so that she is not receiving attention for the behavior. We still have much room to grow in bonding. Just yesterday I tried all day just to get a little eye contact. We will keep working!
