A Better Day

We had our 2nd full day with the boys and it went so  much smoother.

We were up by 6am to start our day.  Nolan was dry through the night again!  We ate breakfast-- I fed Oliver and Rachel fed Nolan.  We have been feeding Nolan so that he knows we are there to provide for him.  Plus, it has helped with the messes.  At the same time we are allowing him to have a water bottle with just a litle bit of water so that he feels like a big boy.  He loves unscrewing the cap over and over.

We are feeding Oliver much slower with little bites of food rather than shoveling it in.  By the end of his meal he is much more content to have the bib come off and have his face cleaned.  He is quite the character.  He loves to scrunch up his nose, raise his almost nonexistent eyebrows so that his forehead looks like that of an old man, and gum your finger to death. 

Oliver loves to be in the carrier with me.  He falls asleep everytime and it is nearly impossible to wake him when he is in it.  He loves the closeness and is definitely making up for lost time.  He is still spitting up-- almost like reflux, but he did finally have a good bowel movement so his tummy troubles are better. 

We went to our Embassy appointment this morning.  I was amazed to see the brand new, modern Embassy building.  All went well except for us having the wrong sized photos for the visa.  It was another stressful moment trying to find a photo shop that was open on this day after holiday holiday, but we did in you'll never guess-- the underground shops at the train station. 

The computer is giving me trouble so I will have to split this post in two.  For now--Enjoy the videos!
