A few more cute pictures...just because we can!



As much as we have written about Brad's and my thoughts/feelings regarding this whole wonderful adoption adventure, our four older children have some strong emotions of their own! They are crazy about Emma Hope! She gets hugs and kisses all day long! Today the girls have even volunteered to tough out the nightly crying fits as well since they are all sharing a room! EH takes great daily naps in her crib but we have had her in our room in the pack-n-play for nights. Well somethin's gotta give, so we will try having her in the girls' room tonight.
Lest you think our kids are saints, here is a quote from almost-5 Parker, as we were tucking him into bed a few nights ago: "Why does she cry so much? Why can't we just take her back?" Stifling laughter, I was trying to analyze if he was voicing his first words of jealousy or just irritation about typical baby fussiness. It might be a little of both but based on his overall sweetness toward her, I think he just could do without the periodic wailing!
Well, speaking of wailing, I just heard our precious girl awake upstairs, so I'll sign off for now! Please pray for a chunk of sound sleep after a bottle!!
