Well our first placement went to family at the end of January. We all handled it just fine and while we certainly think about and wonder how they are doing we know that they are where they need to be. Nolan talks about "Vdog" the most....says he does things around the house or that something his V's or often asks where he is. He was with me when they left and saw them leave so he knows where he went. I think he misses him but never seems upset or troubled by it...just more in conversation. I am happy for that.
We have a new little guy now---yes another boy! Apparently boys are us...for now. He's 3 weeks old and we have had him for almost 2 weeks now, so he's a bitty guy. Definitely easier than our previous placement...but the lack of sleep is a bit rough. He is not doing as awesome as I would have hoped in that department. I am hoping that comes soon though. We have no idea how long this will be, his situation is a bit messy so it may be a longer one. Time will tell!
We have had some very welcomed warmer weather---we have also had some very welcomed snow! Zman had yet another snow filled birthday and spent the day sledding with friends and home from school....in fact almost the entire week they were home this after missing several days ago not too long ago for the same reason. I was thrilled to see some snow this year! Though the cold can mosey on out now and I am ready for sunshine and warmth.
We are entering into baseball season and while it is busy busy I am excited for it to get started, we have such a good time watching them play and enjoying the time outside.
I hate seeing this blog fall by the wayside....I really enjoying writing and reminiscing here.
Nolan is at such a fun age...you know the age where nearly everything they do and say is just so darn cute? yep that age...the age I miss the most with the big boys--in fact I dare say it is the only age I miss...their voices and watching them learn and discover, my most favorite for sure. At the same time the big boys are entering super fun ages too...despite the sassy and the often crudeness...I really am enjoying being able to have real conversations with them. Joking and laughing around on a new level and again watching them grow and mature into older kids. They are great boys with huge hearts and I am very proud of them.
