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!

Double Trouble

 Talon sure loves to wear our shoes. Too bad he doesn't keep his on! Every time we get in the car, he removes his right shoe. Always his right, never his left. Haven't figured that one out yet. 
I can see these two getting into lots of trouble together. Yesterday I was organizing their bedroom closet and when I walked out, they were no where to be seen. I walked out into the family room and it was just way too quiet. So I peaked around the corner to find my bedroom door open. I go in there to find them in my bathroom playing with their lotion bottle. Since it has a pump, Talon put some on his hands and then got it all over my contact case and a few other items. Luckily I had found them very shortly after they got into the bathroom so no damage was done (: At least they weren't playing in the toilet like I caught them once doing....yuck! 

Yesterday they learned how to open doors in our house which is how they were able to get into my bathroom. Lets just say that I put the door knob covers on a few doors in the house right after I cleaned everything up!
