Getting to Know Her

Today we went to get Joni's Visa photos and conduct her medical exam.  Like all the children she hated being touched and looked at by strangers but all in all it wasn't too traumatic.  Afterwards went went shopping for baby items and then in the late afternoon Scott reported to our guide's room where he filled out all the needed US Visa paperwork (I had to stay back for Joni's nap).  Tonight we had a big group dinner  at the Japanese restaurant and got to have have sushi two nights in a row! 

Joni continues to bond and blossom.  We are beginning to figure her out, so far we've learned that....she DOES NOT like strollers (probably had never been in one before yesterday), she likes animal crackers, she does not like fruit, she likes oatmeal, she does not like getting her diaper changed, she likes combing her own hair, she does not like her bath, she likes snuggling, she does not like ice cream or lollipops, she does like zerberts and being tickled.  It has been so neat to discover these things and there is do much more to come!

  1. Lynne- I loved seeing the difference in Joni from her first pictures to the most recent ones... the transformation is so beautiful! And I'm sure it's just the beginning. Thanks for taking the time to share with us!
