We had concerns with bringing home a newborn, after all, we just adopted our 5 last year. We watched for jealousy and regression, among other things. I am pleased to share that the children are enjoying their new brother, always asking to feed and change him. They are so proud to have him and tell everyone about him. He's held nearly every moment of the day, and they are very protective of him and eager to watch him for me while I cook, put on a band aide or something.
We've been able to visit McDonald's play area - just momma and my 10. Yesterday we went to an art studio to do a self portrait. We've been grocery shopping a few times now too. I think we are getting the hang of this!
