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!

Organization...here I come!

So after I got done with my last post, I went and asked Daniel if he would be interested in making another shoe rack in the closet. He thought it was a great idea and to even put our pants and sweaters on the shelves too. So today I went through our closet and grabbed the pants that I wear most often and all of my sweaters. (before our sweaters were on one of those closet organizers that hang from the rod but it took up so much space) I also decided it was time to go through some of my shoes and pants and was able to get rid of all the ones I never wear.



Next project: to build some more shelves in our closet up high to put all of our stuff that we don't need to get to very often. I also want to do this in the other three bedroom closets too. I hate clutter and love organization. I am loving that Daniel is in a shelf building mood right now!
