I know there is a need to keep our kids' world small for a while, but after a few days at home, and only at home, I was having a hard time. Since the successful Chick-fil-a outing, we've had a couple of backyard pool playdates with friends, a morning at a park, and one exciting trip to Sam's Club!
Everyone is basically doing great. We're especially keeping our eye on Lexi, who is maybe a little too comfortable with strangers. She's such a ham. She definitely provides the entertainment in the family. Just a note, for now it's still important that Scott and I be the main people that are holding the kids and snuggling them and are showing affection. While they really are doing an incredible job with attachment, we must remember that they've only been with us for 3 weeks. We have a doctor's appointment set for next week with an IA specialist (int'l adoption). He'll be able to give us more of an idea of what to look for and how to handle some adoption specific issues we might be facing.
Here are a few pictures from our trip to the park. And one of Molly... poor Molly, her favorite place to lay is right in front of the couch... it's getting a little more crowded there.
