Adoption update….

We are one step closer.  Lauren had her interview on the 21st.  All went well.  Our worker said that she will do a rough draft of our interviews and then set up an appointment to meet again to discuss what we are looking for.  She said she is keeping her eyes out for a little guy, so hopefully by April we will have an addition to our family.  Yeah!!

Christmas 2009…

Christmas this year we went to Disneyland for two days.  That was our present to the 3 of us.  We had a blast.  We went to Disneyland Tuesday the 22nd and California Wednesday the 23rd.  I think I had more fun at California than Disneyland.  I loved the Grizzly River Raft ride and Soaring Over California was a blast.  Mikey loved the Maliboomer.

One step closer….

We had our 2nd interview today for adoption.  It was our couples interview.  I have mine on the 8th and Mikey has his on the 28th.  Then we will schedule one for Lauren.  After that we will have a family one again and hopefully we will be approved after that.  Yeah!!  Wanting to be excited, yet don’t want to get my hopes up too much.

Paintballin’….

Mikey works M-F 7a-4p and then goes to school M-Th 6p-10:30p.  So, he doesn’t have much free time.  So when he gets a chance to go hang with the guys, he goes all the way.  They had a blast!!  These are just some of the hundreds of pics Jeslin took.  Thanks Jeslin for the awesome pics!!

Lauren’s School Picture….

Here is Lauren’s 3rd grade school picture.  This is the fall one.  She will also have one taken in the spring.  I think I like this one the best since kindergarten.  Her hair actually didn’t mess up.  Yeah!
