Spring?

It may not feel like it, but Spring is here so it’s time for an update on us. We have been doing some brainstorming for fundraising ideas. While I don’t want to give anything away, I will just say that it’s going to be better than last year. Last year we held a golf scramble, okay threw together, but it went okay for our first time doing something like that. Unfortunately we weren’t able to make it worth our time to have one again this year. We have not totally ruled out having another one, just not this year. I do hope to have the details nailed down for this year’s event soon so I can reveal what it is going to be.

In the meantime, I have started a new project. I am making fleece dolls to sell to raise funds for the adoption! I am having a blast with them and am so excited. I don’t have any pictures available yet but will post some as soon as I can. I am also still making the baby blankets upon request. Those are a little more time consuming and to be honest, I don’t have as much time as I used to with chasing after a 2 ½ year old! If you are interested in a blanket, order early. Time is running approximately 4-6 weeks.

Now onto what else has been going on. Parker is doing great. He is such an awesome little boy that amazes us every day. It’s hard to believe he’s been home with us for almost 2 years. We are currently waiting on our I600-A approval and fingerprinting notice. We also have some training to complete and wait. It’s all about waiting at this point. You’d think it wouldn’t be as bad the second time around, most days are okay but there are days when I become a little obsessed with checking chat boards and such.

Keep checking for updates and information about the next fundraising event!

April 14th

Happy 40th Birthday to my wonderful husband.  Hard to believe 2 years ago today we got the best phone call in the world that changed our lives forever.  I could hardly wait to call you to tell you we have a son.  It seems like it just happened, still so fresh in my mind.  I know I will never be able to top that birthday present, so I will just say Happy Birthday.  Still happy.

And... "Happy B" from Parker! 

We love you!
