Week two in review

Toni, Michael and Willow headed home to Edinburgh and as sad as it was to see them go they were ready to head home and have a normal routine back again. Hopefully next time they are home to stay!
Hard to imagine that Aiden is Toni's son here in the photo he is so tall! Willow went all shy and was sad to be leaving.
We also said Goodbye to Laura who was heading back to England and then We called in to Sergio belatedly for his birthday!
It has been a hard few months here and I feel still all backed up and working in little steps to try and regain some of the momentum I used to have. :(
Hopefully once this month is over and I have some more structure then I will feel like I am not constantly drowning!

Aiden enjoyed his time away and was glad to be at home when Annabelle came for her last visit as he had missed her!
He is so good with babies which is a worry!

The big and small of it all! He just loves babies and children.
Emily also loves babies!

My posing girls! I hope that this also means they are comfortable with themselves.

Alice too is blooming and it was amazing to see her nestle next to Alan which is a rare thing for children to do and especially Alice. It is great to see her comfortable in her space.

More posing! Help!

Then our friend Jenny sent this image saying there is always one in the holiday snaps!
Granny Sal complained that Aiden had been doing some of the same as in this photo and just to prove she is honest here it is!
Oh yes most of our summer photos have Aiden doing the eye rolls and funny faces very much the face of a typical 14 year old!
And we love him and the girls for who they are and how they stress us out on a daily basis!
Till next week!
Hugs Ruth

I saw you over at Fliss's blog... so thought I might just pop over and say "HI"!
I follow a couple of blogs where kids have been adopted from China.. which I think is just so neat!
I have a few kids... none adopted... but think all kids are rather special... even if I do whinge about having them more often than not! lol
