What's Eating You?

Seriously, spaghetti sauce makes me retch... even just writing the word made my stomach wince. I was never a big fan, but we go through the huge family size jar in about 2 days. The kids want it on EVERYTHING. We're really trying to introduce new foods... Lee and I eat something else and H. will usually at least try it. We have been teaching them to say "No thank you." if they don't like something. When we first got them they'd pull these terrible faces and carry on and on. They're pretty good about that now.

Every day seems better and better. We're still tired and overwhelmed, but it feels more normal, if that makes sense. It's to the point now where I can't really remember life before Y&H. There is a sort of amnesia that comes with parenthood.

I had a couple of wonderful hours to myself this a.m. Target for larger undies for H, and various other necessities... then Woodman's, which was packed. I really couldn't figure out why it was so crowded.... um, yeah... July 3. I have lost all concept of time.

Sooo, I suppose now wouldn't be a good time to invite you all over for a spaghetti all-you-can-eat thing, huh?

I found this from a family that adopted some older kids from Ethiopia this past year. Thought it may be encouraging!
