I’ve Got Good News and Bad News…

Which would you like to hear first? 

I will go with the bad news first and get it over with.  Yikes.  Here it goes.

The Littles ate poop

Yes, I changed a poopy diaper and set it on a chair so I could properly dispose of it later.  I read a book to the girls and forgot…To make matters worse, this is the second time it has happened.  But this ties in to my good news

I got a phone call from our lawyer and as of today, December 8th, the girls’ readoption is final!  They officially are US Citizens and can get SSN’s!  As I was talking with the lawyer, I walked around the corner to check on the girls and saw them eating poop. I tried to quietly clean up the mess, balancing the phone between my cheek and shoulder as I frantically cleaned poop off of a book, hands, carpet, clothes.  I couldn’t have the lawyer know he had just completed the readoption for a negligent mother!!!

So, it’s official, official, official.  We didn’t even have to go to court.  YAY!  Praise God!

And they are probably the only people in the whole world who celebrate their big day by eating poop.

Oh how I love them. My funny little babies.

And you were worried about Jon feeding them ICE CREAM!?! So funny - David was actually belly-laughing as I read this to him! Kind of glad we missed that stage, I've gotta say.

Congrats on the citizenship!

Amaya does this all the time actuallybut only when she poops when she is in her crib (supposed to be sleeping.) So we have had to start putting her pj's on backwards. The zip up fotted pj's ya know, those on backwards every time she goes in her crib. Well now she just transitioned into a big girls bed and so far so good. It's just gross though and I almost puked the first time I saw it. It's not only you that it's happened to. Don't worry.
