Wednesday

Oh by the way! There were two other families there at our guest house from our agency! One couple was there for Embassy and were bringing their daughter home and the other couple was also there for court which was the same day as ours! They were adopting twins and this made their 9th and 10th children! They were both amazing couples and they offered a lot of information that was very helpful to us as they had been through this before! It was very helpful to have someone there that helped us know what to exect because, we had no idea about anything!

Nathaniel slept pretty good through the night but, when we picked him up Monday he sounded a little congested and yesterday his nose started running. He will hardly let us lay him down, so we have had to hold him and pack him a lot! Which doesn't bother us but, I hate that he is feeling bad. When we try to lay him down he cries and screams! Joey says we have already spoiled him but, I think he is feeling bad too! Sometimes he will just smile and laugh and he does this gurgling thing that just cracks me up! When he lays down he holds his hand up and twists it back and forth just staring at it for minutes at a time - it is so sweet and funny!

We got brave today and decided to go out into the city. We wanted to go out and eat but it was already about 5pm and we were supposed to go out with all the other families for pizza at 7pm. We went shopping instead! I bought a couple scarves and some hand made giraffes, toys and an outfit for Nathaniel. We were starving so we stopped by the Kaldi's Coffee shop, which is pretty much identical to Starbucks here. Then we went back to the guest house and got ready to go out for pizza.

We ate at Antica Pizza which was a nice brick oven pizza place. There were several other families there although we didn't really get to associate with any of them because Nathaniel was tired and sleepy. Then we went out to change his diaper and boy...did he get mad! He cried and cried! So we were outside walking him around tryin to console him. It was getting late for him, I think the nannies usually put them to bed early and it was about 9:30 before we left. Then, when we got back to the guest house he was awake and happy, of course! So I put him in his crib (well acutally playpen that was provided) with just his onesie on.

In the middle of the night I woke up and he was awake, just laying there gooing and doing that gurgling thing that he does...then he started to cry. I got up and bent down to pick him up only to realize that his diaper was half way on and he had peed everywhere! LOL I had to laugh! I changed him, found a dry blanket and put him in the bed between us. We slept for a couple more hours until the morning.

This was taken  before   the little incident we had! lol
