Soon there will be five...






I thought I'd post more pictures of our family since hopefully soon we can update them with all five of us posing! 2-3 kids? Is it really that much different? Some say yes, huge difference, others say 2 is busy and 3 just keeps the momentum going. I think it depends on the kids and their ages. Heck we'll have a built in baby sitter soon since our son is almost 10!

This is my friend that has yet to read this blog!


Aren't I cruel? I told her that I would put a picture of her on my blog just so she would go to it to read it. She's said she didn't have the addresss, so I emailed it to her over and over, then she said the link didn't work, I explained how to mannually type in a web address, then yesterday I said oh well then you won't see the cute picture of yourself I put on there. She didn't believe me. Well LISA if you read this you can click on the comments button below this and leave me a comment sweetie!

We're number 1! Can't be number 2! Come on everybody do the adoption boogaloo!


We were told by our agency director yesterday that 2 infant girl referrals have gone out so now we're number 1! It could be any day, it could be a Month! So if you're a control freak and like to plan every little detail of your life.....adoption may not be for you! Because there are a TON of unknowns. We live with the comfort of knowing that we will be blessed with a precious baby girl soon. And that God will make it happen when it's meant to be. And we will become parents of a baby that was meant to be for our family!

We're number 2!

Number one received their referral! Yeah! Congrats Karen and Matt. We unfortunately don't know the person in line after them so we're not sure if they have heard anything yet. I'm just dying for pictures. I want to decorate them, make cards, put in frames, you know all that fun stuff you do with you're new baby pictures. They have learned that their baby is in the same orphange as Susan's baby and Sarah's baby. So she can hopefully get updates from them when they go to get their babies! And baby Lucy and also baby Gracie were there and are now home and settling in. So from what we know from them a couple little babies were brought in there in December. And it's a very small orphanage with a lot of loving care takers. They said there were 4-babies when they left with 3 care takers. That's a great ratio! I saw a video from one of the Mom's and the nanny was holding their baby and sobbing. She was so torn to see her go after caring for her for 5 months. So the babies are well loved there which is so sweet and nice. I can't wait to hear where are baby is!!!

Can't believe it's been a Month!

I can't believe it's been almost a Month since Christmas! These are more pictures from when we rented a house at the Lake of the Ozarks with Hubby's family. He has 5 kids in his family. We had 10 kids there. I think Grandma and Grandpa had the most fun! The house was great and everyone had so much fun. I am blessed with great in-laws. I love them all. I am very thankful for my husbands family. It was just my Mom and I growing up, so I love the big family with all the noise and crazyness. Can't wait to add another child into that mix. She will be the baby and have lots of older cousins to love on her!
