One Week in America

Parenting Cosi has been quite time-consuming. Every day is an adventure- trying to figure out what she likes to eat, what upsets her or calms her, what her routine needs to be, etc. She's also still jet-lagged, so sleep time is usually from around 6pm to 3 or 4am (waking up off & on during that time)! And one big surprise for us was that she doesn't nap. Hopefully once we return to East Asia (in 2 weeks), we can get more normalized.

Every day she looks and acts more and more like an American 3-year old. She loves car rides and walks around the block, she has a love-hate relationship with baths, and she's very cheery when she wakes up. This morning, Rob and April were talking over breakfast and Cosi repeated the word "Apple". It took us a few moments to realize that she was talking!

Her US passport arrived in the mail today, and the difference between the pictures on her Ukrainian passport and her US passport are striking- she has changed so much in a few weeks!

Pictures and videos will be posted when Cosi permits. She has a stranglehold on our schedule right now!


Cosi's favorite foods:
