Our soon to be hopefully new addition.:}

We found out that Adriana, Gabby's sister should be coming to live with at the end of may early June. We are having over night visits with her every other weekend to transition her here. I must say I was very nervous about adding another child to our one bathroom house that is already bursting at the seams. I was also nervous about how the kids would interact. Would I be able to give enough of my time to 5 kids? Would I go crazy? So I thought we would just see how it goes. This last weekend was her first night here. She fit right in like a glove. She split up several fights between the girls in a healthy way and never excluded Katie in anything they did. They all had so much fun playing together. Jordon and Adriana Clicked right away, they both loved playing games on the Internet. Everyone really loved having her here. All my fears were gone, I know it will be ok now. I know it will be hard and challenging in a million different ways caring for 5 kids but I know that god has a plan and I'm following it. Here are some fun picks from the first night, enjoy.

Photobucket Very rare to see Jordon interacting in a good way with Gabby. They seem to clash. This was so nice to see them playing nicely.

Saying goodbye was hard. Adriana was crying so hard and didn't want to leave. It broke my heart to See her and her sissy so sad. She really pulled at my heart strings. looking forward to seeing her again, really soon.
