Welcome

We set up our adoption blog so you can get to know our family a little better. I started blogging back in 2007 and have kept up with it over the years. At the end of every year, we print off our blog for that year and give it to Daniel's mom for her Christmas present. She keeps all of her children's yearly journals in a notebook that we will get back one day to pass down to our kids. I try to keep it up to date as much as I can.


When we decided to start the adoption process, I decided to make an identical blog for birth mothers to read. Everything that I write about my family on our personal blog, I copy it over to my adoption blog. I understand that an adoption profile only gives limited information about us and we want you to have the opportunity to really get to know who we are and what we like to do as a family. Our adoption blog will show you who we were even before we adopted our boys. Feel free to read as much as you want or click on the links up above!

John

My brother, John, came into town over the weekend. He hadn't been up to visit in a while and so it was nice to have him come up to hang out. My brother is so handy and he was able to help Daniel with installing some speakers in the ceiling in our family room. We've had the speakers for a while now but wanted to wait till to install them until we got a center speaker first. I know Daniel really appreicated his help.

We also headed over to Circuit City to take a look around since they are going out of business. We ended up buying our first LCD flat screen television. I have been working out on the elliptical for the past few weeks and thought it would be nice to have a tv to watch. We already had a television but it was like two feet off the floor on a tv stand and trying to watch a tv that low and having to look in between the handel bars as I'm moving them back and forth was a challenge. So we got a smoking deal and bought one. We moved the ellipical into the sitting room of our master and John helped Daniel to hang the tv on the wall and install the wires so we can watch satelite in the room also.

Thanks for all your help John!
