The start of another week

Most of the time I'm not too glad for Monday to roll around but this week I was. We have been gone quite a bit (3 out of the last 5 weeks) so I'm ready to be home and try to get things back in somewhat of a routine. We all came home from vacation with some sort of illness. Aiden had a cough, Keegan had a runny nose, Joselyn had a runny nose and some stuffiness, Stan didn't feel quite right and I'm just plain tired. So it's time to stay home for a little while:)

Sunday night Joselyn slept from 10:30 to 6 a.m. I couldn't believe it. Well I didn't get my hopes up too high because last night she was awake until 1:30 a.m. Happy as can be, she just didn't want to sleep! Hopefully tonight is better. She continues to be a good baby. She broke out with a baby rash while on vacation so hopefully that goes away soon.

Last night I went to an adoptive mom's support group meeting which I really enjoyed. It was nice to visit with others who have or are going through the adoption experience. We discussed Lifebooks so it was nice to get perspective on that.

We had Joselyn's 6 week pictures taken today. We did a couple with all 3 of them and then Joselyn alone. They turned out really good. I'll try to get a link posted later but I don't have the password yet.

We also had our first post placement visit today. Things went well. We sent a few more pictures along with the social worker to give to the birthmom and I have more yet to be developed to share with her as well along with the 6 week pictures we took today.

I go back to work on August 10 so I'm trying to enjoy these last few days at home! Tonight we're taking the boys on a bike ride which is something we haven't done since we took Joselyn home. Joselyn is going to stay with Grandma as we can't quite fit her and Aiden in the burly just yet:)
