Well, no pictures this time because of our broken camera, but I thought I would write anyway. Graham is one month today and getting so fat! Every day I look at him and wonder how he got so much bigger overnight. It's just amazing how much they grow in these first few months!
We've been having some tough times, but I know it's only temporary. Marin has decided that she wants to scream about everything. And Graham is turning into a screamer as well. The theme at our house is, "Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better." I want to sing it during the day because my children seem to compete over who can yell the loudest. If Graham starts crying, Marin cries louder. And if Marin screams, Graham thinks he needs to scream as well. Graham has an excuse, but I'm not sure what's going on with Marin. She is turning into a different child. I'm not sure if it has to do with being sick recently, or if she's still thrown off by the addition of a new family member, or if she's just entering a really defiant stage. I'm not sure. Add to the mix a super tired mom who doesn't get much sleep and it can get crazy!
But, there is hope and I know things will get better. I'm praying for patience and endurance. I love my two little screamers and still feel just as blessed to have this little family. So let's put on a smile and sing...
Anything you can do, I can do better.
I can do anything better than you.
No, you can't. Yes, I can.
No, you can't.Yes, I can.
No, you can't.
Yes, I can,Yes, I can!
