We are Home and Pictures...FINALLY!!!

Ok...we arrived home last night, and things are going very well. Malayna is continuing to sleep through the night...and both kiddos are asleep right now. So, I am taking the opportunity to update the BLOG while I can.

Malayna is such a doll...so smiley and happy all the time. Each day we see signs that she is getting used to Matt and I which is very comforting. We went to the doctor today and all is well. She received one shot and had blood drawn for numerous routine blood test. We will know all the blood test results in the next few days. She is sitting up independently and rolling over, but no crawling yet. She is not a fan of tummy time...so, we will be trying to get more tummy time in to help her learn to crawl. At the doctor today she was 18 lbs and 26 inches long. She is in the 10th percentile for height and I believe 50th for weight. Like I said, she is a chunk!

Brayden is adjusting well so far. He wants to help a lot and is aware of her presence. He wants my attention immediately when I am paying attention to Malayna...so, some jealousy which we expected. Today at lunch...he was so sweet. He took Malayna's hand, opened it up and showed her "five". It melted my heart! Malayna loves watching her brother...she will learn so much from him!

So, on to what everyone is waiting for!!! I am going to post pictures now (I am not feeling compelled to write captions), and try to get some video clips posted either now or later today...keep checking. We got some great photos and video footage while in Guat.
