Belated Post.... Nolan's been home 6 Months now!

I've been cleaning out the dress up clothes. This elephant has been around since Landon was 2 or 3 and every once in awhile they all squeeze into it. No one has ever worn it out of the house... there is just something about it that bothers me..... ;-)
I see a Firefighter Calendar in his future!

I am so proud of Landon, Summerlyn, and Lorelei;
even after 6 months they still happily help Nolan
whenever he needs it (most of the time).


All together!

To my adoptive Mom friends, I know you can fully understand the feeling of seeing all your kids together in one pic- all feels right with the world when they are all under one roof.


To my faithful blog follower friends- thanks for checking in! I am trying to update somewhat regularly. We are all doing well. Nolan is growing & changing and most importantly, laughing, playing, and loving. When I sit back and thing about all that has happened in his little life in 6 short months, I am amazed by his resiliency and strength. He's is such a gift, bringing joy and adding more fun to this crazy, busy, abundantly full life God has blessed us with.

Bedtime Fun!

This is the 1st time I've added video... I have no idea how to turn it so bear with me!

As you can see, Nolan knows how cute he is and tries to use it to his every advantage! This is just before bedtime tonight, (he looks tired right!!)playing around with S & LC.

He is still stubborn, still thinks obedience is optional, and is still 2! But for every challenge, thankfully there are so many things that make us laugh. He's a clown for sure. For example I went in to get him up a couple of mornings ago and he said, "Hey Baby!" just like a construction worker trying to pick up chicks! I laughed so hard! So now it's a big joke in the family and he knows it will bring a big laugh so he says it over and over! Enjoy!
