Bela is definitely attached to her mommy already showing her Grandma that she wants no part of being cared for by anyone other than her mom. Poor thing just cries and cries. We even tried wrapping her in Melissa's coat thinking her momma's scent would soothe her but to no avail. She knew we weren't her mom and expressed herself so that everyone in our building knew it. It was reliving Melissa's infancy all over again. I'm sure in time, the lactose intolerance, the reflux, and getting used to us will get better.
Emma got to spend her 2nd night away at Grandma and Grandpa's and although it was a slightly rocky start when Bradon & Melissa tried to leave, Melissa finally calmed her down enough where Emma fell asleep and didn't wake up until 7am the next morning. Oh, how I love to walk in the room after she first wakes up! With a huge smile and with her jumping up and down, she starts naming everything she sees showing you how smart she is. After breakfast, it was a trip to Toys R' Us that brought a smile to her face as she got to pick out a ball - a big blue ball as she calls it - which she then managed to carry throughout the store. Her favorites... Thomas the Train set and the Radio Flyer tricycles which she tested out for quite some time. It figures that she was actually trying to figure out how the different components of the train set worked! There's nothing girly about this little one...
On the way home we stopped and ordered a pizza - one of Emma's favorites - and her and Grandpa went on a long walk while waiting for our order to come up. With a red nose and rosy cheeks, she insisted on walking as much as her little legs would take her. She insisted that only Grandpa could hold her hand as I joined their little party. Too funny! On her walk, she found a little piece of bush on the ground and insisted it was a flower which she then took home to her mom with pride as well as her new big, blue ball. Shooby dooby Emma, Shooby dooby!
