(my spell check isn't working for some reason and too lazy to re-read to
make sure it's all correct.. sorry...)
Wow! It's been a bit crazy and hectic here lately! And I'm sure it's only the beginning, but I'm SOOOO ready!!! :)
We got our VISAS on Monday!!!! :) We are still waiting to hear our travel date, but thinking we will hear any day now! ;)
I put Keegans bed together and Curt and his dad went to go get the mattress from a friend who was giving it to us! THANK YOU soooooo much!!!! The boy’s rooms are officially MUCH smaller now, but I am ok with that and so are Thad and Gavin! They are READY to get Keegan in their room! :)
We have a dresser for him and thanks to my SIL, Paula; we have a few 5-6 summer outfits for him!!! :) We will need to get a few fall things, but don't know all the sizes yet! I'm thinking all 6 of our kids are going to need shoes and clothes come fall! ;)
I'm so ready and excited to get Ella and Keegan, but yet I have this peace and patience yet.... I know that God's timing is perfect and I'm ok with that! I also know that the month of July is going to FLY by!!
Curt will be doing a work project from July 1-4th, then that Saturday we have a church work project, the 10th-13th he will be in Haiti, fly’s home around 5 pm on the 13th and then leaves by 3 am on the 14th-20th to go to Mexico mission’s trip with our church! Dakotah gets to go with him and is absolutely THRILLED and counting down the days til she can go!!! :)
After that we have our FAM JAM, our family VBS at church, and then the week after that, which I think is July 30- Aug4 or 5th he will be in MI for his DM Conference! Plus little things here and there in-between! ;)
Trying to stay on top of some school work with the kids, which I am not succeeding so well this week... haha... And major cleaning and purging going on and re-arranging, again, as well! I guess you call this nesting? Didn't know that could happen when adopting!! ;)
That's pretty much all we know right now! Just waiting on our travel date so we can GO and plan better! :)
Oh, we did send Keegan and Ella a care package and we got pics of Ella! LOVED seeing the pics!! Oh and we heard about a FB page for adoptive families and we got to see a video of our lil man Keegan! Oh how God knew I needed to see that! PLUS we've been getting some pics of of him from another family that is adopting a child from the same floor he is on.. In each and every one of those pics, he's smiling soooo big!!!! :) Praying that the adjustment for him goes smoothly, and am a little worried about Ella and adjustment... I really shouldn't say worried, b/c I trust God, but since she is in Foster Care and more one on one care... it may be harder for her... But it's all in God’s hands and I know we will take a day at a time! :)
