Day 5

We spent the morning and afternoon at the TH today! When our van pulled up, Isaiah was peeking out the gate watching for us. Then he jumped in the van to hug us before we could even get out! He was excited that grandma was feeling better and came back today. We spent the morning taking turns playing with each our of sons. It’s a total tag team effort  Kaleb loves to walk laps around the outside of the TH. Brad and Isaiah went for a run around the house. After a couple of laps, Brad was way out of breath, Isaiah didn’t seem faded at all. Ha!
We left for lunch with other AWAA families and Kaleb went down for a nap and Isaiah went back to the other TH for lunch and a rest. We were back at 2pm. Kaleb was still sleeping, so we sat on the porch with Isaiah and Jacob. Isaiah liked playing Angry Birds, some other kids came to play too. It was somewhat relaxing of an afternoon. Kaleb didn’t quite have as much energy, so he actually let me hold him for a little bit. We have quite a bit of work to do to bond with him. Please be praying for us.
I got to take some pictures for another AWAA family today. They have been waiting since their July court date to come back and get their infant son. Well in the mean time, they have decided to adopt a 10 year old boy too!! I’m so excited for them!! Today their older son came to the TH and I got to take pictures of their 2 boys together!! Job, an AWAA guide, kept saying “their mom is going to be so happy to see them together!” They are coming here next week and I can’t wait to meet Debb, the mama!
My goal today was not to get puked on. On Tuesday Jacob threw up on me and on Wednesday Kaleb threw up a lot on me. Awesome. Just one of the joys of being a mama! Thankfully both boys were feeling better today and no one threw up!!
Someone from AWAA went to court this afternoon and our MOWCYA letter wasn’t there yet. They will check again tomorrow.
