9 months old




Ends up she had roseola. Fever is gone and her rash is barely there anymore too. Shes back to her happy self and sleeping at night.
We put up Evan's big boy bed last night. He loves it!
Because we seem to have quite a few asking as she gets older, no she will not start talking spanish. Her first language will be english and we hope to all learn more spanish as she gets older. We do use both spanish and english with her when we can.
She does understand a few spanish words now though and Im sure shes learning english too. She knows kisses in spanish (besos) and that makes her smile and laugh. And saying dance in spanish always gets her legs and body moving. She knows the Guatemalan word for bottle (pacha or pachita)-which is different than other spanish speaking countries. She makes lots of sounds but no real words yet, shes a bit young.

Happy 9 Months Sweet Girl!!!

Before I brought Johanna home I had several people ask if she spoke Spanish. I would try not to laugh as I told them she doesn't talk yet. LOL

Aww Amy... she is so cute!!! I have that same outfit for Madalynn that says 'Mommy's Little Sweetie'. I think our girls have had several outfits in common through this journey. Which is fitting seeing as how their referrals are 1 day apart!! :-)
