end of the year

Christmas has come and gone... finally.  We had a very nice Christmas and it was good to spend time with family but I'm happy it's over.  I want to get the house back to normal, then I can start digging through paperwork for #2 and also get Parker's Certificate of Citizenship done.  Yes, more paperwork for Parker, this should be it though.  At least until he starts school! 

As 2010 ends and 2011 is set to begin I want to recap.  Just kidding, not much to recap.  I can say that we had a great year with Parker.  Watching him grow and learn new things, the words he has started to say.  One of the first ones, other than mama & dadda was squirrel.  The latest is cowabunga... thanks grandpa John!  He is counting steps with daddy, and counted to 13 the other night.  He uses a spoon with no problem, he hasn't quite gotten the fork down yet but that will come before we know it.  He continues to amaze us and make us laugh, even when he's being so naughty. 

We look forward to a wonderful 2011 and wish the same to everyone.

Happy New Year from the Cramblets!

waiting again...

I guess I can finally announce... we are adopting again!  We are officially on the "wait list" for #2 from Korea.  We are very excited to be going through the process again, even if it is a long one.  Currently the approximate wait time for a referral is 12-16 months after the home study approval date.  Of course that can always change.  I am going to try and stay on top of updating so please keep checking for any news.  I have started a time line to follow also.

Wish us luck with #2!

Christmas is coming...

We made it through Parker's 2nd birthday, Thanksgiving and I even did the "Black Friday" shopping thing for the first time!  The house is decorated, the tree is up, and now all we have to do is wait for Santa to come. 

I'm really looking forward to this Christmas.  Parker now gets the whole present thing.  Last year he didn't really care too much about presents, or unwrapping them but this year will be different.  He had practice on his birthday last month so when he sees the gifts this time he should know what to do.  I am so excited to see his face when he walks downstairs Christmas morning.  Although, right now he'll probably just want to stay in bed.  Fine with me!
