All about D

He's here :) Just for a night, until next week when he stays for the foreseeable future. I want to remember these early times, especially if he ends up staying with us for a while. Having a 2 year old was busier than my parenting role has been over the last few years, but the older kids were so eager to help, and Ellie was especially disappointed if her affection was not returned. His favorite things so far- driving the cozy coupe inside or out, at an extremely fast pace! Ice cubes and marshmallows were also a hit. He calls us Mama and Daddy, and Matt was a hit with his underdogs on the swing and book reading. The word 'no' didn't seem to register, and he only had a few intelligible words, so I am hoping he makes a lot of progress in that area. All of the kids tried to sleep in the same room, but the girl's got tired of telling D to go back to bed, so they moved back into their room and everyone was asleep. Within 10 minutes. We were told he runs away in crowds, so we are hoping to be on top of things when we attend some events with him tomorrow. Lots of smiles and laughs so far
