Oh, Aly! I "hear" your distress! I think that anytime there is a new addition, there is a huge adjustment period. And Lolly has her own issues anyway having come from a not so good situation. If you're seriously considering keeping this new fellow, and I can certainly understand why you would, it just might take some time. But the next best thing will be a home with your friend, so you could see him a lot!!
Your pictures are darling!! What a sweet, cozy little family you have.
