We
feel so fortunate to have the boys as part of our family and
it's still hard to believe they are really here - in our house.
Things are
starting to level off at the Cramer house. The boys have
adjusted wonderfully and were back on their orphanage schedule
within five days of their arrival. The only real stressful part
still is meal time. Food still freaks them out. Sometimes it's
peaceful, and other times (like today at lunch), it's rather
high pitched. Amazingly, they are already using the potty (when
I put them on it, because they can't walk yet or tell me when
they have to go). At nap time, they put their heads down
immediately (I mean IMMEDIATELY) when we put the pacifier in
their mouths. They dance at the start of almost any sound,
including the power drill and Bruce pounding on the piano (he
doesn’t know how to play).
They already know
how to do "high five", clap when I yell "YEAH!", and they
understand “no-no” pretty well, too. Everyday it gets better.
You should see how cute they play together. It is as if they
have a dimension of their own that no one else can see.
