A little more than a week

Delylah at ballet
Nanny and her 5 grandkids

The kids at Michaels making key chains
So it has been over a week and overall things have gone exceptionally well. I think when you adopt older kids you expect the worst but hope for the best when it comes to adjusting. The kids have done so well. The kids have just fit right in and they are great siblings to Lennah and Delylah and Delylah and Lennah have become great siblings to them. They play together, laugh together, and have the typical sibling squabbles together already (althought those haven't been bad at all).
The past week here has been totally busy. The day before Father's day I took the kids to Michael's to make key chains for Keith. They totally got into it and were all excited to give Keith their gifts. It was great to see them so excited after only a short time here. For Father's day we also took the kids to church for the first time with us. Zach went to the kids classes and loved it. Lennah has been working on her gymnastics classes and luckily she found an activity that she wants to stick with. Heather came with me to Lennah's gymnastics class this past week and now she too wants to give the it a try so tomorrow night she gets her trial class. Delylah also started her first attempt at the county dance class and she also is in love with dance now. To keep the boys busy and to give them an opportunity to meet other kids we put the boys in surge camp through our church. As you can tell this week mom has played taxi driver to our family. seems like everyday there is something different to do and the days are flying by.
