They Like Eachother. . . They REALLY Like eachother

Life has really been falling into place lately, and I feel like I'm getting more caught up.  I don't know what direction this blog will take, but for now, I've been having the time to post here and there, and as always, I have a lot to say. :)

If you have been reading my blog for a while, you may remember my many crazy posts leading up to picking up Nur regarding my many fears about having enough love and time to give to both kids.  Yes, it was definitely one of my greatest fears.

Some of the fears are true.  It is hard to give both children everything they want.  Sometimes they will both get fussy, and only want mama.  Sometimes I feel like I'm always making a choice of which one to comfort.  Sometimes I feel like the worst adoptive mama in the world and that I'm not providing Nur with the constant security he needs and deserves.  Sometimes, it is very clear to me that I am dividing myself among two babies, instead of giving myself fully to one of them.  But, I will say this, I do my best, and although I was so filled with fear before getting Nur home, the majority of those fears have been unfounded.

Here's the thing I was hoping for, but wasn't sure if it would be the case.

I was REALLY hoping my babies would like eachother.  And guess what?  They do!!!  They are best friends! What more could I ask for?

Here is some of their sibling cuteness:

• TT almost always wakes up before Nur.  So I'll be hanging out with her, and when we hear Nur wake up, I'll go into his room to get him, while holding TT.  As soon as they both see each other, they shake with excitement and smile from ear to ear.  Adorable! :)
• At our kitchen table, their highchairs face each other. . . one is on one side of the table, and one on the other.  They sit and talk and laugh at each other the whole time.
• Okay, so they aren't twins, and it does annoy me when I'm out and about with both of them, and people ask me if they are twins (seriously, T and I get asked that ALL the time) but they have developed a twin talk.  It's crazy! They babble to each other SO much, and because Nur is older and more vocal, TT has become more vocal by paying attention to her older bro.
• Nur thinks that TT is the funniest thing ever.  Everything she does, he just giggles uncontrollably.
• When we have them both in their carseats in the backseat of our car, they sit and look at each other, talk and laugh.  This happened the other day, and there is Nur and I in the front seat, just swelling with pride of our two little babies in the backseat carrying on a conversation.
• If TT cries, Nur gets so upset.  He is already a protective older brother.
• They play SO well together.  Sure, there is the occassional hair pulling, or toy stealing, but they tolerate it so well from each other, where if it's another kid stealing their toy, it's a meltdown.  But when big brother steals the toy, it gets taken right back. 

Seriously, these children are amazing and yes, I feel very stretched thin sometimes.  Sure, many nights I go to sleep feeling guilty that I didn't give enough hugs and kisses to one of them that day, but at the same time, these kids absolutely love and adore each other, and they both realize they are permanent fixtures in each other's lives.  It's amazing and beautiful. :)

And a couple random pictures I just pulled of my phone, cause come one. . . a post is just more exciting with pics. :)
