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!

6 YEARS!

Daniel and I celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary yesterday! Part of me feels like it was just yesterday that we got married but then another part of me feels like we've been married forever. It's hard to imagine life before him now. We are the best of friends and I feel like I have the perfect life with him. 

Yesterday, we dropped the boys off at my friend's house (Heather) and we went to the Movie Tavern to see Snow White and the Huntsman. We both thought it was a great movie and of course I love the fact that we get to eat dinner while watching the movie. After the movie, we walked over to this little place called Sweet Sammies where you get to pick out an ice cream flavor and two cookies. Then they make you an cookie ice cream sandwich. It was really good but I couldn't even eat half of it because I was full from dinner. 


On the way to Heather's house, I texted her to let her know that we were on our way. She let me know that they had a blast and her entire family was in love. Our kids always do so good when we take them out in public or take them to other people's houses. I am very thankful that I have very well behaved kids.
