Today's visit with Kellsey went really well. We were put into a different room this time... some sort of office. They brought her in, she got upset for one second, I pulled out a gummy bear, and all was right with the world! LOL They left us alone after that and we had 2 hours on our own.
We blew some bubbles, which she thought was pretty fun. After awhile she tried to blow them on her own, it was so funny! We're going to have to work on that, she had the idea down though! We sang the "Itsy Bitsy Spider" complete with hand motions... over and over... and over. LOL She has the hand motions down perfect though! We looked at the photo album with the family pictures again. She wanted to know everyone's names and she studied my lips REALLY closely as I was saying them all. By the end she was saying something that sounds very close to "Keeghan".
We did get lots of smiles today and even some laughs. We figured out she likes to be tickled... I think. We're not sure she's ever BEEN tickled before. At first she wasn't too sure, but then she started laughing and then when Frank stopped tickling her she grabbed his hand and put it back to her neck to do it again. We're finding ways to get past our communication barrier :).
Towards the end, Frank pulled out my iPhone and Kellsey discovered the wonderful world of Spongebob *groan*. LOL It wasn't a movie, just an app, but she had a LOT of fun with it. NO doubt she'll fit in well with our crew! haha We have it on video which I'll get posted soon.
Kellsey seemed to be a little croupy today, so I'm hoping she's not getting sick, especially that she's not getting the flu! She was happy though and seemed very content to be with us. At noon they came to get her for lunch. We gave her a hug goodbye and she happily ran down the hall to eat. We're excited to see her again tomorrow!!!
Here are some pictures from today!
Waving at daddy... look at that smile! :)

I'm curious as to why they stick you in an office for visiting. Are there no 'play rooms'? Or, are you not allowed to see the other children?
She is absolutely beautiful! She looks like a perfect fit for your family! Looking forward to the video!
Oh my GOSH I am soooooo excited for you all! She looks so happy and content with you both. Congrats again!
