Oh ok, fine Day 5
Today was fairly good. Any hour surrounding sleep as in going to sleep, waking up, nap, then waking up, then going to sleep is heart sobbing. But she wants held. So that's a good thing. She has a lots of scratches around her neck and shoulders and lower back. We think it's her self soothing trait. When she crys, she will start to scratch herself in those areas and her head. We have been cutting tags out of clothes just in case its that.
We had nothing planned today so we tried to eat breakfast at the buffet. They made Josie and I's noodles right into front of you. It was sweet. Josie ate them as fast as she could scoop them up. It was so funny to watch her slurp them up. She is so Asian. Lol. And we are so white. Ha.
She loves playing with Gary. But she allows me to carry her in a carrier. She doesn't like to look at me for long, but I catch her looking up at me.
Since we had no appointments, we decided to walk to a "park" down the street 15mins that our guide told us about. Park was in quotes...because it they had grass but fence around it. Duh. It was paved sidewalks in where you could walk and didn't have to play chicken with the vehicles. There were a fair amount of kids there and we were wondering if seeing more children if Josie would cry for missing her friends. She did but she would turn her head until they were out of sight. She looks at everything but didn't seem afraid of the traffic noise and horns. And there is a horn blowing hmmmm every 5 seconds.
There was a little fenced in low area where you could buy seeds to feed the pigeons. One bird got too close to Josie and she backed up right into Gary's legs and arms.
Josie has to eat on her idea so we eat some and set it down and she will decide maybe she wants some. So far it's noddles, yogurt, bananas, crackers, and apple juice. She will not touch congee or rice which was surprising to me.
We are in the room for lunch and got her to sleep a hour for a nap. She woke up very sad. After getting her somewhat calmed down, G played with her (because she wouldn't look at me) and then I talked her into a bath. She maybe kinda likes it (at less she wasn't crying).
We headed out for for another walk since she loves to push the elevator buttons and the outside. We went to bakery and she was pointing and saying all kinds of things. She would slap G's arm and point and talk. We got ice cream for g and I and some little cupcakes for her.
Then we went back into this little restaurant that our guide took us to on Sunday and G had used his translator app to get the word naan and tea in Chinese. We managed to get it and it was spicy. Josie didn't seem mind but drinker more water.
If we leave the door open and curtains open, she is more ok about being in our room. I'm sure the people walking pass the door are wondering what in the world is going on.
She likes the toys but wouldn't use crayons or writing stuff. But today I scribbled wildly on a paper and she got it. I'm guessing she is a lefty. She had 4 crayons and she would always put all the points one direction.
One time today as she was playing, she started to sing. My little heart sang inside with her.
Nighttime again is hard. She sobs her little heart out. She has us so wrapped around her. We can't stop looking at her gorgeousness. She is so perfect. I want to kiss her all up, but she is still very cautious of us (mostly me). I try not to take it personally because she thinks I'm replacing her nanny and that's not cool. I get that. I thank God for Gary every single minute. He is so good with her and it melts my heart.
