HOME STUDY DONE!!!

I finally passed the home study but because it took me more then 90 days we have to rergestir with the courts. In about a month and a half we came truly start finding the perfect kid for our family. I am so glad to be one step closer. Thanks for your help everyone.

Okay here's the story

So my sister Tricia took Daniel for originally a weekend so Steve and I could have a romantic get-a-away. Well I decided that since it is less then 100 degrees here (by a little bit) and we have our final home study coming up that our weekend rendezvous would be CLEANING!! I call it fall cleaning instead of spring cleaning. I mean dumping out drawers, throwing stuff away, and filing. I am a pack rat and to all my former roommates I am sorry. Cleanliness is not my strong suit. Daniel ended up staying for a week and I ended up busting my but scrubbing and going through stuff but in the end it is WONDERFUL. Now i just have to learn how to maintain. I am so stinkin proud of myself though that all of you have to see and hear about it. And.....you get to see my super cute kid whose return home today has made me so happy. I missed him. well I am off to watch speed racer with my boys. Our final home study is on Monday so pray for us. Will keep you posted.

sorry

i am so not a blogger. i love looking and have tons of stories i just never sit down to type. we are all doing well and still striving for that elusive home study. i am going to be babysitting again in about two weeks and so that will give me a cuddle partner. Daniel is growing up so super fast and talks all the time. his latest thing to say is "that doesn't make any sense" he says that every time i tell him no. He is also trying to use big words and want to say "wow that is impressive" but say mom instead "mom that is very impressing" he also love to read and is working on math things. Mom if i have one red monster truck and then take away one red monster truck then I have zero. he loves loves loves loves the xbox and would play all day everyday if given the chance. he is careful not to loose "privileges" as he call them by doing his chores. he wants a big brother so bad and is begging to adopt the neighbor kids. my honey is working hard and rides his bike to work so that keeps him fit and saves on gas. i am just waiting for it to cool down. it is still in the 100's. i read and have friends over play hi ho cherrio and candyland. draw and color. i am just rambling but thought i would kinda update you on the fact that our life is wonderful right now. hope everyone is doing well.
