Patiently Waiting

Yes, I really am...
What's hard is hearing Thad say, I play with E--- and K---- mom!  You go get them ok mom?
Ugh....  he knows whats going on, he just doesn't understand the waiting part!  :)

I'm ready!  I've been "nesting", didn't know you go through that when adopting, but all the same, I'm chucking stuff that I don't need/want anymore....  Still stuff to go through, but got a good start!  :)  I could get more done if I didn't have 4 lil munchkins following me, what are you doing mom?  I've been giving them checklists to do, so they leave me alone for the most part... ;)  They REALLY like checking off something once it's done!  YAY!!!!  :)

So I "think" i figured out sizes for the kids!  Our lil girl will most likely be in a size 3, not sure about shoe size, but not worried about that!  :)
Our lil man will be a 5-6.  Our girl is about the same height and weight as Thad and our lil man is almost the same size as Skylar.  So that's the sizes they are in, so that's what I'm going with!  I hardly have any 5-6 summer things, so will go get a few outfits.  I'm not going to get alot b/c I'm not 100% sure they will fit, but I want to take a few things with us!  Less to buy is better!  :)  There is a Wal-Mart over there, so if we need to buy shoes, we can go there and buy a pair.  But I'd really like to not have to buy clothes!

I'm getting more and more excited as the days go on! 

Some days I can't believe we started this almost a year ago and they are almost here!!!  Yes, we could be waiting up to 5 months, but honestly, I'm ok with however long it will be!  I'd rather it be sooner, but am at COMPLETE peace as to God's timing.  I know His timing is PERFECT and I 100% trust that!

I can't wait to complete my family (for now...  ;))!!  I'm not sure what else God has in store for us, but I am SO ready!  I'm ready for Him to use us!  I'm ready for that next step, whatever it is, I'm going to follow Him!

Thank you again for all your love, support and prayers!  I don't think we could get this far if it weren't for all your prayers and support!  It means more than I can ever say!

I'm so excited to be able to tell others and talk to other families about adoption and help them start the process!  To tell them that if they truly are doing what God is calling them to do, then God will provide!  I can't wait to help these families more through the adoption process and watch how God is going to bless them!!!!  :)

Whew...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to kettle bell class and I died...  I honestly haven&#

Ultrasound

First of all, thank you ladies for all those sweet comments you made on my last post! How sweet you are for saying those things! Made my day!!! :O) Second, went for the ultrasound on Monday and everything is fine! WHOO HOO!!!!! No more placenta previa!!!! The baby weighs about 2 1/2 lbs, and everything looks good! We took the kids with us so they could see their baby brother/sister, they LOVED it!! Gavin was FULL of questions though! What's that stuff she put on mommy's belly? Why do the lights needs to be off? I only see one eye. Where's the other eye? What was that, is that his hand or leg? Oh my.... ;o) The tech ended up putting up a 4D on the screen, so that was really cool to see! The cord was kinda in the way, but I still think it was awesome! I didn't have that with any of the other kids!!! :O) Maybe the trick is taking 3 other siblings in to see the 4th!!! ;o) I also only gained a pound, which I am trying to figure out, seeings how I pretty m

Grandma

Grandma passed away this morning at 1:35 am. She had been totally un-responsive for the past couple of days. Yesterday we got a call and said she only had an hour, they said they made the mistake and grandma heard them, so she kept hanging on! Her feet had been cold and almost black, but they were starting to get warm and she was taking more breaths, but still very shallow. Finally she gave in and went home! The family seems to be doing ok, just please keep them in your prayers! The viewing will be Sunday and the funeral on Monday. I am not sure of the times yet, they are meeting with the funeral director in an hour. I am not going to be at the musical practice Monday nite, so Sandy May and Jena R are in charge that nite! I will have the lines assigned so the kids will know what their parts will be! Please help them out this week!!!! Thank you!!!! Thanks again for all of your prayers!!!!
