UPDATE!!!!

It's been a crazy few weeks!

I posted that Kotah broke her elbow...  she broke the bone that typically isn't broken!  Way to go my dear!!!  :)  If you are gonna break a bone, go ahead and break the one that isn't normally broken!  :) (I'm saying it in a teasing tone!  I'm so grateful and thankful she is ok!!!  :))

We went in for a check up (x-rays) to make sure bone was healing the way it is supposed to.  Got to see a better pic this time and he showed where it's broken...  Yep, it def is!  :\  BUT the good news, this bone has more fat on it than the other bones, the fat leaves you after a certain age, so for kids, it's a good bone to break b/c it heals very nicely!  YEAH!  :)  He said  I don't see us needing to do surgery.  Come back next week, not until AFTER Tuesday, b/c I can't take it off sooner, sorry sweetie, but we will take it off, do more x-rays and go from there...

Kotah heard the first time we were there, last week, that she would need the cast for atleast 3 weeks, so she is like, are they going to have to put another cast on?  Will my bone be ok, will it be healed?  What are they going to do mom?  can I keep the cast for a bit after they take it off?

Oh my daughter!!!  ;)  I said, he's the doc, he knows what he is doing sweetie!  We will find out more when we go.  So her next appointment is Friday, Aug 10th!  So for her birthday she prob won't have a cast!  :D 

I signed up to be a secret pal with the adoption FB group we are apart of...  I got a package today!  LOVE everything in it!  :)

I posted a pic on the group wall and then on my page as well... A friend asked when we were going to get XJ and E and i said Sept...  Then I hit enter to send the comment, then I realized that it's basically Aug 1 now...  Which means Sept is ONLY A MONTH away!!!!!!  REALLY!!!! 

Then I had another friend ask if we really were going to travel then, and I said, yes, that's what they told us, sometime in Sept, the beginning to middle!!!  Can you believe it???

There is light at the end of the tunnel!  It seriously just HIT me.  I mean, yeah you say you are traveling then, and we don't have the official date yet, but that's when it looks like it would be...  They told us that a few times....  But it REALLY SUNK in....!!!!!!!!!!!  My babies are coming home and SOON!!  Soon they will have their forever family!!!  <3

I can't believe it!  God has blessed us so much!  Yes, we still need money, LOTS of it, but I'm not worried!  I know that God has a plan and it's perfect!  it most likely will be last minute too, but i trust Him!  He has brought us through this whole process!  I thank Him for His peace and calmness that He's given me through all this!

We should have a date within the next 2 weeks...  I think...  ;)  God has it all under control and for that I am so very thankful!!

I'm going to enclose a link to a friend of mine who is adopting a deaf boy as well...  He is 9...
They are selling Goat Milk Soap.  It's $6 for a bar and they get $3 for every bar sold... If you don't want it for yourself, you can have it sent to me!  ;)  Teasing...  They would make a GREAT gift, just for a thank you to someone, or a teacher, or just becasue...  Buy some soap and help this family bring their lil man home!!!

Thank you for your prayers!  Truly appreciate them!  And they are felt!  Can't believe this journey to bring XJ and E is almost done!!!  :)

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!!!!
