Soccer

We went to Susan's soccer game this morning  It was nice to be outside before it got too hot.  The last couple of days Susan has been having a harder time being a big sister - hoarding her toys, blocking Valerie from different areas of the house...  Although not surprising (honestly I expected this to happen sooner) it's still something that needs to be worked on.  It's a little different becoming a sister to a 2 year old than to a newborn.

If I ever lamented having a messy house before this adoption, I really had no idea.  It's so hard to keep up right now.  I know things will settle eventually but for now we just step over the stuff on the floor.

It's crazy being a family of seven.  Last night we ate at Chick-fil-A (to see Ivan at work).  Although we were missing two of the kids, we still had five people eating together.  That's a big family!

In case you thought I was exaggerating about my messy house
