My Sweet Girls

So here they are freshly bathed, night time drink cup, and ready for bed. I got these adorable matching jammies in China.
They are doing pretty good together, although almost everything gets made in to a competition. Don't let Abby's cute little face fool you, she can instigate in a heart beat. She already knows just the right buttons to push on Alex to make her mad. We are constantly refereeing.

We had Abby's international adoption clinic visti today. It went well. Nothing unexpected. They will be referring us to the burn clinic for her arm but no other referrals were needed. She is pretty close to being caught up on her development. They only thing she is really behind on is her speech and there is an obvious reason for that. They want to wait 3-6 months to see how her speech develops. She had an interpreter today but I don't even know how much she really helped because I think Abby is really understanding alot of English. She can't speak it but she understands alot . She has started pointing to things and wanting to know what it is and then she will repeat it when you tell her. She is starting to count in English on her own. And she mocks alot of what Alex says. I have been trying to get her talking on video but it is hard because she wants to see the video while you are taking it.

Alex is doing okay. She has been regressing alot. She is so funny-- Abby said something to me in Chinese and Alex repeated it and I told Alex that she could just use her regular words to talk and she told me that she was speaking Chinese. Too cute.

Love these pictures of the girls. Sounds like they are getting along like sisters should, right? They are both so precious! Can't wait to meet Abby soon!
