Moving In

We got all dressed up and went out to eat on Thursday night.




Here are some pictures of stuff being moved in and of the kids excited to see their toys.


Darton enjoying his 1st Presidente.


Darton was really sick today, but Scotty found some rub similar to Vick's but less potent that is helping him breath. He's now 26" long and 15 1/2 lbs! Yes, he's growing fast. The reason:
at every meal he screams at us to give him food! And I'm not kidding either. Daddy has to remove him from the dinner table and take him outside to see the traffic to get his mind OFF of the food (at least this is the method since we've been eating out for the past 5 weeks). He gets seriously irrational about it all. It's quite humorous.

The Dominicans are CRAZY about children and everyone has something to say about our 2. Usually they say "Que lindo!" (how cute) and/or "Te bendiga" (bless them). It is very sweet until they want to "help," which can end up being more work for mom than wanted. Everyone wants to pick up Adeline and touch Darton. We were told by a checker, in Spanish, that Darton shouldn't put his hands in his mouth. I didn't see her point until tonight when everyone was touching Darton's hands! We'd rather be in a place where kids are loved than not though.

Congrats on being in your own place. We have been praying for you guys on a regular basis, and will continue to do so. We just celebrated Aria's first birthday...can you believe it...she's really growing.

Blessings!
