~ Melia and I jet-setted (really train-setted) to Chicago last week. My beautiful, lovely, sweet cousin was in town for work. Melia and I stayed with her in her hotel and we wandered around Chicago all day last Wednesday.
(That is after I walked with Melia in the front carrier and pushing my lugguge in the stroller for a mile to a hotel, yes I said a hotel because I was at the wrong one! But we hailed a cab made it to Rhiannon.) Melia fell in love with "Whi."
We were also able to finally meet Jean and J.P! They have been praying and praying for Melia since we started the adoption process. Miss Melia also enjoyed spending some time with them.
~Miss Adeline, is loving potty training these days. She's actually loving the treats she gets after set tinkles but hey it works. Poopy not so much, but it'll come. And sorry Micah about the poop in the hair --you don't want to know!
~My boys are rocking their myjobchart.com. They get their chores and school work (very minimal school work, just to clarify so it doesn't seem like we're super studious) every morning and love it since they are earning points for a date. It makes our morning run smoothly (when the girls aren't playing WWWF) and they we play all afternoon. I'm increasingly happy that the boys are such great friends. Their conversations are hilarious!
~ In other news...I'm reading this awesome book- One Million Arrows and loving it.
I'm also working on a Bible streak, reading everyday and read through it in a year.
We're continuing to feel blessed as we pray for your whole family -- and meeting you & Miss Melia was such a wonderful treat! :-)
ReplyDeleteWe're also glad that Addie & Melia have their struggles with each other -- that means they both have strong personalities and one will never be able to overshadow the other one! :-)
Eventually they too, like Caleb & Nathan, will have a special sibling relationship! We'll just be praying for you & Michael while they continue in their WWWF stage!
