I cannot believe that they - My husband, my kiddos and my Mom actually were able to pull it off. And I think I am a bit dissappointed that the girls didn't spill. LOL Monday I was putting Alex down for his nap and the door to the bedroom opens and in she walks!! My husband said the look on my face was worth it. Of course I cried!!!
It has been a great week - we got to visit and just hang out for the last few days. Alex has gotten to know his Granny and his Pop Pop as he calls him and he keeps saying that he wants to go to Granny's house!!
Of course the bad/sad part is that she had to go home. :( The good news is we will be going there for Fall Break in a couple of weeks and my 20th class reunion. (has it really been 20 years????)
She did get to experience some fun things with us for sure...... Today Alex got his Thomas the Tank stuck so tightly in his hair that it had to be cut out!!
The absolute perfect week would have been to receive our LOA today. I guess we have one more day this week. Hey - a girl can dream!! It will actually probably be a couple more weeks as things have been progressing slower in LOA land!
We did get some pictures from other families that have traveled which is awesome to see him - but one Mom did say that after picking up her daughter that he was sad because her daughter had left and that was his crib mate and that he understands what a Mama & Baba (Mom & Dad) are...... I am sad and happy to learn this. Happy that may indicate he might be less likely to grieve because he is anticipating us coming and possibly looking forward to this as his friends in his room were being adopted. Sad because I want to hold him and soothe him as he grieves for the loss of his friends. Hold on baby we are coming!!!
