More Random Thoughts & Moments

How does twice the family size equal six times the dishes and 47 times the laundry?

Peterson had a squealing laughter FIT yesterday when I choked on my water and couldn't stop coughing.

Justin won't stop chasing Scout so he can pet her. :) I'll get a pic up here soon.

The pretty floral arrangement that used to sit in the center of our dining table has been replaced by a box of Huggies wipes.

I love, love, love that Justin poops in the toilet on his own! One big advantage to adopting an older child...

I've washed one of my cloth diapers 9 times and it still smells like Haiti poo! Sticking with disposables 'til poos normalize. I started to notice some positive changes in that area yesterday, thank God!

Whenever I can't understand something Justin is saying he repeats it slowly and loudly. Too funny!

Justin can finish a gigantic plate of food in 12 seconds. It takes Petey an hour to eat just a few ounces. Just like Papa and Mama.

I gave Petey a haircut in our living room, and he did not get upset at all. What a blessing!

The runny noses and kennel cough have decreased dramatically. Yeah!

That is so funny Cara! I would love to be a "fly on your wall" for a day! Yeah, I had to remove an arrangement in our living room because a certain someone who will not be named :o) was filling it with spittle :o(
Shakira eats two plates of food in the time it takes Samara to eat one.

Jonas still does the slow and loud thing when I don't understand something he is saying. Like saying it louder will help my ears and brain to understand their English with a Haitian accent any better!
LOL

I love hearing all about your adventures now that they are home! Thanks for the laughs!
