Last Week in Pictures: Part 1

Here are a couple pictures a day or so before we left for Burlington last week.

This isn't the best picture, but I had to include it because Owen Scott picked out the headband and flower that Zoe is wearing (and also some for Claire). Early on after the girls got home Owen was at a store with his mom and asked if he could get these things for the girls. Too sweet, that boy! I keep forgetting to tell Maria that the girls love wearing what he gave them.

Moving on to Burlington . . .

This is how the boys kept occupied at the Hospice House Tuesday night.

 With a little help from Zoe.

I think I might forever be endeared to the Burger King in Burlington because it so saved my sanity a number of times.

The second time we went, there were actually several other people eating in the little play room. So, my kids hid out in the tunnels . . . and took a bunch of pictures!

I kept this picture in here for a little older children adoption tip. If a child has a hard time with physical touch, one good place to start is to let them walk on your feet like Jason is doing below. Jason did this with the girls quite a bit at first and now just does it for fun.

 Hanging out at Grandma Rhonda's one of the first nights. And, another Owen Scott hair flower siting!

This must have been a day we didn't go to Burger King and burn off energy. The boys and Zoe were jumping from the chairs.

Or, over the chair back in Zoe's case!

Sometimes Abram needs a little extra help getting his legs flipped over him. :)

 Poor Abram.

 Meanwhile Claire sat back and watched.
