Here's the latest :
Kalia drinking from a water fountain for the first time.
Kalia Singing / Reading . She had me stay in there with her for her down time (more on that in a minute) and she just went to down with her Pretty Little Horses Book. It cracked me up! I should've edited it down a bit, but didn't.
As far as how she's doing, Kalia seems to be getting worse instead of better with the relocation stuff. We've definitely gone backwards in sleeping, which I think is a bad combination of relocation, 2 year molars coming in, and the 2 year old sleep regression stage. But she's also gone backwards socially.
Today I took her to the YMCA to go swimming in their indoor pool. They told me the outdoor one was heated, so we headed out there, and there was a class going on, so she was over it and told me she wanted to go to the indoor pool. We went to the indoor pool and I went to the far lane, and jumped in with her and the man swimming in the lane next to her said hi and she lost it to the point of no return.
She won't socialize with anyone else besides Chris and I. No kids, no adults, no anybody besides facetime and skype. Kids around here have tried to friend her and she either clings to us, or just stands there, or cries until we leave. When we get to a place where there's other people out, so immediately makes us pick her up and just clings to our neck.
I'm hoping all of this will get better once we get to the new house. She was such a little social butterfly, so hopefully once she gets comfortable with her surroundings, she'll get back to her normal, happy go lucky self.
But she is still a happy little girl with Chris, Kodi, and myself, so that's enough for us right now!
Poor Kalia (and poor Mommy too)! Hopefully when you get settled for real she will settle back in to being her happy little self!
