having a ball

Y'all should see me, I am siiting next to the bathtub on a little cube chair (think OT)with the laptop, watching L splashing in the bathtub. He LOVES his bath !!

He has been getting up pretty early, 6 ish, and between 6 and 7.30 he finished a 5 oz bottle, no bolus, how good was that ! It took him 4 "sittings" to do it, but hey...........

He is ALL smiles, for everybody. His CW came yesterday, she is awesome and a fighter, we'll get along just great !! She said he is always pushing bio mom away, which is telling, because he loves to snuggle and love on people. When you ask him for a kiss, he will lean his forehead against yours, so sweet.

All the kids just left for school, dressed up in their costumes.
MMM..MMM, you didn't think I just sat down and fed L and that was it............nooooooooooooooooooooooo

I dressed a scarecrow, a superman, a cheerleader and a spanish dancer, averted a breakdown (Lili) because she really wanted to be Cinderella and we couldn't find the dress (which she probably stuffed under her bed and forgot all about, where is that darn dress ????) Anyway,, she looks much cuter as a spanish dancer. Then Sofia started melting down, because her outfit was itching ( and we can NOT just tell mama, we have to start falling apart, before she half screamed " I need a "hemd" " LOL LOL it shows how there are some dutch words that are so woven into our lives !!!

Or how about Sebastian, sitting in the tub with L, and starts singing "spetta spetta spa" (spetter spetter spat, wie zit er in het bad)

I have to be at the office at noon for feeding instruction for bio mom with the medical fostercare nurse, should be interesting !
After that he will go with bio mom and grandpa, for a 2 hr visit.

All new territory, I have heard from everyone involved that grandpa is a sweetheart, who just loves on L, so that's good to know. he trasnports and supervises the visit.

Off to take L out of the tub, he's got monkey hands by now !
