PICTURES!!!!

Ok, granted they don't actually SHOW Baby D because of the regulations for foster parents and the child's confidentiality (and the caseworkers who came by today said this kind of pics are okay to post). But they DO show my husband Alan not long after meeting D for the first time and getting to know her. And i just love the expressions on his face!

In other news, D finally let me put her down today. Just on the couch, but it's still a good thing. i got a couple of loads of laundry done, set up the pack n play, did a tiny bit of work from home, etc. When she fusses i just pick her up, sling her, and walk around a bit. At least, that's what worked today. i don't have any expectation that it will work tomorrow ;).

  1. How wonderful! I am newcomer to your blog. We have two foster children, both of whom were D/E. The baby was extremely tough at first but is doing beautifully now. I hope it's okay if I share a few tips. Swaddling tightly will help her sleep soundly no matter where she is, the sling worked for us too.Bouncing is a big no-no but a side to side swing worked miracles as did vertical rocking. If you ever need to vent or want ask questiosn please feel free to let me know. Congratulations!
