3 weeks already...

WOW!! I just can't believe it's been 3 weeks since Nema arrived! Time is definitely going by too fast!!! We are all hanging in there. Adjusting has been a little on the rough side. Zeke still continues to struggle. He's become pretty defiant, often testing us to the point we want to scream. Thankfully, the Lord is with us and we are relying on His strength to get us through this phase. I'm also very thankful that Zeke loves his sister!! I don't know if I could handle him being defiant and not liking his sister! God is definitely good!! Please pray for all of us, there are days I feel like all we do is tell him "no!" "stop!" "don't do that!" We are trying to use positive reinforcement as much as possible but some days it honestly seems like there is nothing to reinforce! Thank you for your prayers!!

Nema had a 2 week check-up last Monday. Praise the Lord, she got a great bill of health. She is up to 7 pounds 11 ounces. She's eating very well and sleeping pretty well!! Here's a few pics of our past week:
