Karine has been doing great! It's hard to believe that we have been home with her for 3 months today. She brings so much joy to our family. We couldn't imagine our lives without her. She has already grown over 2 centimeters since we've been home! I recently got her a plush horse which she absolutely adores. We've come to learn that she LOVES animals! Especially horses and cows. She also loves her little dog (now). She wants to touch any dog coming her way. It is so much fun to see her explore her new surroundings. She is SO expressive when she gets excited to see something new. She is now starting to say a few words. We've had an appointment for speech but they say to wait and see how she does on her own before starting therapy. We're going to see her again in November. We've had quite a few doctor's appointments already since we've been home. Karine doesn't like them one bit but it's getting better. We've quickly noticed that she doesn't like to be told no as she'll stomp her feet but we can distract her quite easily so no big meltdowns. We haven't had to say no very often as she listens well, so far ;-) I've added some pictures from this summer.
