Jonathan Day 159

When the alarm went off at 5:00 AM we just weren't ready to get up.  Da Da and I went to bed at 8:00 PM so we were sure to get enough sleep for our big day today.  The drive was effortless since no one was on the roads that early.

The appointment was at 10:00 AM and we got there at 9:45 AM after killing 15 minutes getting a coffee.  JH was very well behaved and the woman from Child Advocacy seemed impressed by his behavior and development level.  JH was able to spend the last half of the interview in the lobby with Da Da.  The whole interaction took a little over an hour and I felt good after.

Next step is for a social worker to contact us in about 10 days and arrange a home visit.  They may need to do two but we won't know until after the first.  I'm sure it will all work just fine and they'll see that JH is well cared for and loved no matter how big the space is for him to play :-)

In the afternoon we went to lunch at Melrose Diner and walked over to the Gap on Broadway. They had 50% off Clearance so JH scored some great jeans and sweatpants for about $5 ea. Then we came back to the condo to wash the bedding (from the trow-up incident last time) and relax.

The evening is ending after a walk to Target to kill some time and get some exercise for Daddy and Da Da.  Dinner was quick and after JH and Da Da play with his blocks it's bed time for this little boy.  Good thing because we're all pretty exhausted.
