As the photos show, June is really doing well...her favorite things are swinging outside, reading books, doing puzzles, and driving her sisters crazy ; ) She loves to be around her jie jie's all the time - even at night. D and R have still been taking turns sleeping in her room, which helps her get to sleep w/ no tears. She tends to wake up around 4:30, conincidentally the same time as her father, but then gets back to sleep til about 6 or 6:30. School continues to be a big hit, and she loves to talk all about her day, and sing her preschool songs. She is getting attached to other family members now, too - enjoying her aunts, grandparents, etc.

One thing Miss June does NOT enjoy is being told "no". When it is not her turn to choose a tv show, or to sit in a certain place, she gets extremely annoyed. The world's saddest face is produced, complete with pouting face and the big, fat tears I have come to know. Today, she decided to pour a cup of water out onto the table and play with it...When I took her down from the table and quietly told her that it was not okay to do that and that someone could slip in the water, it was about the saddest momet ever. The tears, the sobs...she was really upset. If you haven't met Junie yet, you haven't heard her super-cute, raspy voice - LOVE IT! It adds a little extra drama to the cry, too. Some cuddling and reassurance that everything was okay fixed the problem, we wiped up the spill, and off to school we went.

I continue to feed our collective Starbucks habit...everyone needs treats, and Junie enjoys hanging out there. Next on the list - finding a fabulous Halloween costume for her first trick-or-treating here at home. She has some ideas, but we haven't settled on anything yet. Other than that, we are enjoying the beautiful weather, hanging out with friends, and continuing to get to know each other.
