So what has been happening?

It gets more difficult to write things.  We sometimes do a lot during the day and it is just normal everyday things.  Akvila seems to be adjusting well, sometimes she gives me kisses and hugs and sometimes I cannot even touch her.  This warm weather she really has been enjoying.  She is always wanting to go outside and play.

Since she has been home she has lost 2 teeth.  Tonight she lost her second one and has placed it under momma's pillow.  She doesn't want it under hers because she doesn't want the tooth mouse to crawl under her pillow.  Currently she is still sleeping in our bed, and we need to transition her soon to her own.

A few little things that have happen.  She will not go to the bathroom without Peggy, unless it is number 2, then Peg has to wait outside.  She likes to turn off the TV and lights if someone is not in the room.  She has been eating pretty well.  She doesn't like to drink milk, but we have been trying to get her to do it some more.

Today we took her to Opryland Hotel.  She didn't seem to interested in it.  We walked around, took a couple of pictures and then we left and had a late lunch at Sante Fe (Tex-Mex). 

We video chatted with some family tonight and had some leftovers for dinner.  A funny thing happened after dinner.  She was throwing away her plate (paper) and she saw something in the garbage; she stuck her finger in it and then licked it.  She made the funniest face, like it didn't taste good.  Me and Peg laughed and then I said "that is why you do not eat anything out of the garbage."  Peggy started laughing even more and of course Akvila wasn't sure why she was laughing, but she had a smile on her face.

This is going to be a pretty busy week.  I broke the outside water spigot and the plumber is coming tomorrow.  On Tuesday the case worker from the Adoption Service will be coming out.  Sometime also this week we should have a couch delivered for the basement (I hope).  On Friday we will be going to Peggy's work for the "Shower/Welcome Home Party".  There is something else this week, but I cannot think of it at the moment.  I have been out to my work a couple times and everybody wanted to know what was going on and thank us for trying to continue the blog.

Hope to post more soon!
