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!

Balancing Act

Talon makes me laugh so much. He NEVER watches where he is walking or running. He is constantly running into walls or tripping over things but the kid has some major balancing skills for his age. The first time he did this it scared me to death.
Carter decided that he wanted to try also. He didn't do too bad of a job but he couldn't stand for nearly as long as Talon. About 30 seconds later, Carter got in trouble. After he got off, he went over and pushed Talon off of his bike. They are all boy! At least I don't have to worry about them holding grudges or staying mad at each other for very long. When they get in trouble, I put them in time out and then I make them say that they are sorry by giving the one they hurt a hug. They are really good about it now and I love watching my boys hug each other.
