Day 14 - It snowed!

Well, it finally snowed today!!! We woke up to a dusty snow falling over the city and left it's mark mostly on cars, tree limbs and grass. But the roads and sidewalks remained wet. It didn't last very long, but left a nice dusting of the pretty white stuff on the grassy areas. We left to visit the girls around 9:30am and the snow was beginning to end.

We were greeted with beautiful smiles from both of them again today! We played inside and mostly just sangs songs and hung out. We sang lots of Christmas songs to them today. Lee and Lindsay played with his phone playing some of the songs he has stored on there. She really likes music and it seems to settle her down.

Lindsay has taken a liking to a new game of getting down and crawling on the floor. She'll lay down on the floor (which is understood to be a no-no) and giggles when one of us comes over to pick her up. She'll go back over and over again... clever little girl!

It was about 2/3rds into our visit that I notice Lindsay had lost a tooth sometime since our visit yesterday! Her two center teeth on the bottom have both the baby teeth with both of the permanent teeth coming in directly behind them. So there are 4 teeth where there should only be two.... but one of the baby teeth is missing today! I think the other baby tooth might be preparing to come out soon. I was relieved because I was sure we'd be going to the dentist to pull some teeth. I didn't get to ask the caregivers about it since the only one that speaks a teeny smidgeon of English wasn't there today.

By the time we got back to the city and our apartment, most of the snow on the ground was already melting.

Today was a low-key day. I didn't get any pictures today, so maybe I can make it up to you tomorrow... and maybe we'll be able to announce an official date for our court appointment..... maybe, just maybe...

Paka!
