Aidyn can SIT!!!!






Aidyn has made some remarkable improvements in the past two weeks since she joined us in China. And since coming home last weekend, she has gained another pound. Yesterday she started sitting. I place her in the upright position and she can hold it for a while as she plays with toys or looks around. This is amazing, considering that on Sept. 13th she couldn't even bend into a sitting position in our laps--as if the muscles just weren't even there. She seems so proud of her self when she sits, as is evident in these photos.

And last Sunday, Kylie, Brandon, and Kimberly came for a visit. And as you can see Kylie is a giant next to Aidyn. Aidyn is one week older. Kylie was born at 2.6 lbs and Aidyn at 5.5 (likely in 8 layers). Both preterm babies. Thanks Kylie for the hand-me-downs!!! As you can see in the "sitting" photos, the clothes are going to great use.
