Package in the Mail |
Eva and Elijah got a package in the mail today. Clothes from Auntie Melanie and Uncle Nathan (or god-daddy as he prefers). Melanie, on her Saturday routine, found these duds at the Salvation Army -- hooray for cute clothes and good deals. Side note - I have accompanied Melanie on one Saturday morning, what a fun time we had. I found a green sweater and "Impulse", a polaroid camera with a snappy looking case. Pretty much every time I comment on some article of clothing Melanie owns (most recently it was a lovely black wool coat) it ends up that she found it at the Salvation Army -- she is a supreme super thrift finder. Anyways, here are some photos of the kids in their new clothes.






Thanks for your comments and prayers about the sleeping. I think it has been somewhat better. Eva still wakes quite frequently, but Elijah not as much (in fact Elijah slept from 10:30-8:30 last night, again, we're not getting our hopes up, but just enjoying what comes our way). Lance was away again for part of this weekend, now he will be back for a long stretch so we can try to re-establish bedtime routine and I'll have him if I need help in the night.
Okay, I better go. I do have that book recommendation on my mind, but I want to really tell you about it well and I don't feel I have the creative juices to string words together right now.
one last thing -- do you see my new map - it shows where the people reading my blog are from - very exciting. already I am wondering about my far away dots -- Australia? Perhaps I shall have to call out the lurkers. Thanks to Jamie - that's where I discovered the map.
Have a good night.

Your babes are SO VERY expressive Aimee just like you two hey? Oh guess what? I actually met an older couple, yesterday at our "son's" foster-Grandpa's birthday party, that met at CLBI in the early eighties (They are 1983 Graduates)...it sure is a small world, hey?
