Home!

no pics - but I thought I'd give an update on our day - Went and got Zach in the morning. His foster parents sure love him - it was a hard day for them. We took some pictures of the three of them (parents teary) and I sang "Itsy Bitsy Spider" so Zach would look at the camera and smile. I stopped at McDonalds on the way back through town - Zach asked for fries but the meal time Nazi's at McD's wouldn't do it 5 minutes early. Love that. I got him a biscuit instead, he loved it and shared a lot of it with his carseat.

Besides a few toy battles and a stealthy ripping open of a few presents under the tree, (those will be hidden till Christmas) - our day went pretty well. I'm learning how to hold two boys on one lap - I just love that they both want to cuddle - And I'm trying to practice patience - pray for me! Bath time was interesting and fun. Zach asked for a bath almost as soon as we got here. He's used to a quick bath by himself without toys. He had two baths with Mikey last weekend and you'd think we took him to Disney land. I told the boys no pee or poop in the bath and they followed the rules - a little too well. I got Mikey in a towel first and sent him out of the bathroom. Within 30 seconds he came back to tell me he peed on the rug. I stood him on the step stool to try and finish in the potty and Zach immediately started going on the floor next to the potty. So I got Mikey down and put Zach up and Zach actually finished in the potty. He was pretty proud of himself. That's a first for him. With the transition coming his foster parents didn't potty train him. Anyway, so I cleaned up what I hope (but doubt) will be the only double potty training mess. Apologies to those without toddlers - I hope I didn't gross anyone out.

Boys are asleep now. House is...cleaner than before I put them to bed. Josh had to work late - Ha! He gets them in the morning for sure.
