Eddy slept all night and he took a very long nap with me this morning while Paul and the girls went to eat and go for a swim.

Edison loves both of the girls. Kensley makes him giggle and Emily is so sweet with him. He smiles every time he sees them. He loves to watch tv - especially spanish speaking cartoons. Of course, since we only speak English and his foster family only speaks Spanish, he has no clue what we are talkin about.

"Besito" is kiss. "Te amamos mucho" is I love you very much.

He mimicks clearing his throat, clicking his lips and blowing raspberries. He also says, "da-da-da-da (whispering)" and sometimes "ma-ma-ma-ma".

We took the girls tot he largest mall in Central American. The Mira Flora. Limited Too was called "Naughty Blue" which we thought was pretty weird!

Emily bought a new pair of running shoes at the New Balance store. I bought Edison some Huggies diapers and diaper rash ointment. Something we have fed him has left little bumps under his lower lip and irritated his bottom. Not sure what has caused this. For dinner, Paul, Edison and I chose Pollo Campero's. This is the KFC equivalent in Central America and everyone is crazy about it down here. I had chicken fingers and Eddy ate mashed potatos and chicken. Kensley had a Subway sandwich and Emily had Dominos Pizza. My children are very in to ethnic food as you can tell.

We later spent some time in the hot tub at the hotel. The girls enjoyed the pool. Most of the day was spent just enjoying our time with Edison. I can't believe the time is almost over and we will be leaving tomorrow.
