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!

Turning into Toddlers

I decided to take some pictures of the boys last night and after I put them on the computer I found a picture of me with them from exactly a year ago. They have changed so much!

Carter and me!



Talon and me!


The boys relaxing on the recliner.


Talon....I love this look he is giving me.


Carter....so adorable.

Have you ever heard people say how they love watching their kids sleep because it reminds them of how much they love them? I think watching them sleep is so sweet but I LOVE watching them laugh and smile and that is when I realize how lucky we got and how much I love them.

Talon loves books!

I love mornings after a good nights rest and how happy they are.
