Day 6-Wuhan (still!)

























Hi everyone, the last two days it has been raining cats and dogs here in Wuhan, Hubei. I am starting to get a little bit of cabin fever. Today is our third day with Kenzie. Last night she has a really tough night. She would wake up about every 45-60 min. until about 12:30 last night then she slept until about 6 this morning. Currently, she is taking a nap. This morning has been a tough day so far, as well. She is starting to face reality of the situation and mourn the loss of her foster family. My heart really aches for her, to only try to comprehend what must be going on in her little head.

Kenzie is very small. I have her wearing size 6 months in clothes and they are swimming on her. She has two little teeth on the bottom right in the middle. She is currently cutting new teeth. She can take a few steps on her own if you hold both of her hands.

We were planning on touring the turquoise factory in Wuhan this morning but Kenzie would not stop crying so we decided to come back to the room. She fell asleep as soon as we got back to the room. I am sorry we don't have any new pictures to add at this time. We will add some old pictures from the last couple of days so you can still see our little angel. We finally found out what she likes to eat.....warm milk. She will not touch the formula mixture they told us to fix for her. She woke up from her nap and Drew added some warm water to some milk we got for breakfast and she gulped it down!! Now she is a very happy baby...and we are happy to figure out what to give her!!

Kaleigh is still handling this whole trip with flying colors. She has really impressed me. I am so proud of how well she is handling the time change, different foods and a crying baby. Kaleigh has made me proud!

My heart goes out to sweet Kenzie! I hope things improve very quickly. I think I saw a smile on her cute face in one of the photos!

Malia was tiny too. When we got home we had to buy 3-6 month clothes.

Good job Kaleigh!

Poor Kenzie! I hope that she settles in quickly, and sleeps well. Its so hard for us to fathom what she must be feeling, but enveloping her with love will definitely help her heal quickly.
