Sunday, Sunday, Sunday

Today's visit was scheduled for 3:00PM and we got a lot of snow. Surpisingly, the driver showed up early.

We had to return to our little bonding room today. I went up to get Ty and the kids were just finishing their naps. There are 2 rows of toddler beds for the kids and then a desk for the nurse to watch the kids. I went in to help Ty get dressed. Another little boy came up to us and that upset Ty. He said some stern words in Kazakh and waved his hand at the boy. I shook the boy's hand and the nurse told me to wait in the hall.

After Ty got dressed he got his official snack which was a glazed bread. He ate that quickly and we went down to the room and the translator went to get Maxx. She said when Maxx saw her, he drank his milk very quickly so he could come and play.

Although both boys just finished snacks, it did not stop them from wanting more. Today we tried sliced cucumbers. They went over well and Ty and I worked on the word "please" some more. I would hold my hand out, say "please", he'd give me a cucumber slice and I'd say "thank you". Maxx didn't eat as many cucumbers as he liked taking them in and out of the bowl.

Ty still likes to play with the baby doll. She got more juice and her face washed with a baby wipe. She also played "peek-a-boo" with the wipe. Ty decided he liked to "hide" behind the wipe while we pretended he was lot. Maxx was not interested in playing this game. Ty also found corners of the room to hide.

Maxx got out the tricycles from behind the curtain and we let each boy sit on a trike and pushed them back and forth. There was minimal room to do this. Ty has been wearing these backless slippers and they kept falling off on him.

Overall, a pretty relaxing and quiet visit. Hopefully, the weather gets better and we can take the tricycles outside.
