Keegan

We aren't going to Keegan's orphanage which is good and bad. I kind of am glad and disappointed...

Good news is I was watching Keegan interact with the director and it all seemed good! Now I am no doctor but I can tell when a kid is not comfortable or feels they are in danger when around an adult.

The director was def interacting with him, playing and he seemed as if it was an everyday thing for him! Whew!!!

We never got any pics of him and his care package which also had us worried a little, just hearing different things about his orphanage... But it's all good! He came to us with his two outfits, toys and a disposable camera! So am very anxious to get those developed! He also took our emails and said he would email us LOTS more pictures! So am pretty excited to see those as well.

Now, not gonna lie, and I don't want this taken the wrong way... Because I somewhat expected some of this by looking at his picture...

His referral wasn't 100% accurate... Of course Ella's wasn't either, they said she was shy and timid, bahaha!!! That's funny!!! She was also said to
Be very quiet! Again, VERY funny!!! She's def a little 3 yr old girl! She cries to try to get what she wants, which doesn't work, she is getting better this evening, but a little jealous of Keegan. But we've treated her the same and everything! :)

Now back to Keegan... His right foot, I don't want to say its club, but it isn't straight.. I'm thinking a brace would help take care of it? Also, he is a little slow, but like Ella, a fast learner!! He catches on pretty quick! He's a little slower than her in dressing and things like that. But again, it's all good! I love him just as much! He's a precious lil man and I can't picture my life without him, or Ella!!! I'm so very thankful that God has brought these two kids in my life!! I can NOT wait to get home!!

The paperwork was the same, but yet different. We had to go to the adoption office today to sign papers and be interviewed by the officer... Then more signing with our fingerprints, then onto the notary office to be asked the same
Questions as the officer... Oh, a gift to the officer and then the notary...

It took less than 2 hours! That's the time it took to get there too! Which took about 30 minutes from our hotel! So it's completely different than Ella's province, but all good! :)

Panda World tomorrow!! :)

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
