Nov 8 - Mary

We brought Zarina back to the apartment today! We got to the BH at 10:00am and went directly to the Director's office to sign the final paper work. The Director gave a nice farewell speech. We handed over gifts to her. Then we went up to the baby Group room with our gifts for the Doctor and caregivers. We dressed Zarina in her little snow suit—Masha said she looked like a cosmonaut. The caregivers gave their final hugs and kisses to Zarina and Mckenna. These women are fantastic caring women and I am so grateful for the excellent care that they took of Zarina. We then whisked Zarina off into the car which went straight back to the apartment. I think we are going to have a hairy time on the airplane when we fly home because Zarina does not like to sit still for any length of time.

The babies here have quite the schedule. Apparently, they have four two-hour naps a day and finally go to bed for the night from 10:00pm to 6:00am. They also eat quite a lot of solid food. We will try to work on this schedule for the next two weeks.


Zarina getting her first meal with us - isn't that yummy?
She eats mashed potatoes, stew, and pretty much anything that's puree'd
