What's Worse?

Blogging About Nothing or Not Blogging About Something? Since we haven't had anything to report on the adoption front, I've been hesitant to post. I keep thinking, "Surely this week will be the week we'll hear of our approval. I'll just wait to post until then." Lest we all look back at this waiting time and think we did absolutely nothing but wait, I guess I should document some of the last month and a half's events.

The Spore Four


Spore and Bailey Carriage Ride


We've had birthdays for Chad and H, a trip to our favorite vacation spot, Backbone State Park, our 13th anniversary, my Mom and Dad's 40th Wedding Anniversary, a trip to KC for little Alea's first birthday party, Vacation Bible School, the beginning of football for C, and back to school shopping. Phew...(gotta love those run-on sentences).

With school starting Thursday, I'm realizing how much our lives are going to change. Our little C will go to kindergarten this year! She is so ready, and I know she will enjoy her days immensely. It is little H and I that will have some major adjustments to make. We are going to miss her (and the two bigs) so much! I'm not sure I even know how to fix lunch for just one kid. With whom will he play while I make beds, take my shower, and do laundry and dishes? Does this mean I'm really going to have to get the Play-Doh out more than once a month?

Hey Heidi, I love the "Spore Four" shot! Great Christmas photo. :)

As for sending #3 I surprisingly found that my "last" one played sooo well. I think he realized that he had it pretty good with mom's less divided attention and all the toys to himself. Hope that is true for you too. There some really precious times when you get some one on one time. Enjoy.

Fun keeping up with you. Have a great first week of school.
