Re: Across the World Adoption Center Updates
in reply to a message by Emily
Eloise "Ella" Margaret, 5 - from England
Oliver Graham, 3 - from U.S.
Sun "Sunny" Li, 1 - from China
Henry Jude (named changed from Damian Henry), 1 month - from U.S. (Oliver's younger brother)
Ella, the oldest, is adjusting well. She was very quiet at first, but she's opening up more and more every day. She is also loving the sunny weather here in FL. :) She has fair skin, blue eyes, and long, wavy auburn hair. She's a shy, sweet, smart little girl and she loves being the "big sister."
Oliver seemed to fit right in right away! He's an outgoing little chatterbox, and he sometimes seemed overwhelmed at his new surroundings but once he's given time to taken everything in, he calms down a bit...and then talks and runs around some more! He is very protective of his younger brother, whom we now call Henry (or as Oliver says, "Henny"), and loves playing with his new sisters as well. Henry is your typical new baby--sleeping, eating, pooping, and sleeping some more. He and Oliver definitely look like brothers with their green eyes and dark brown hair and similar facial features. Henry is a calm baby, very easygoing, but we wonder if he'll be as boisterous as his older sibling someday. :b
Our second youngest, Sunny, definitely personifies her nickname. A little apprehensive at first, for maybe a few hours, she fit right in and loved playing with the other children, and exploring all the new sites, sounds, smells, and tastes (including the dog!) our household and neighborhood have had in store for her. She's a bundle of giggles and smiles, but when she gets mad or upset, you'll definitely know it! She's quite opinionated for 15 months old, but certainly a great joy in our lives.
We love our new family and look forward to watching them grow & change, and giving them all the love and care they need and definitely deserve.
