Still here...still doing our thing. The house was in a bit of an upheaval for a couple weeks...we had a stomach bug make it's rounds about a month ago and then as that was on it's way out the door the boys had winter break. Robert took the week off and the original plan was to be in TX for a training for our adoption...but as that is now off the books so to speak we had some free time and funds. So we slapped some new floors down and are still in the process of trying to finish that up...the floors are down but the trim and paint and "little" things are still left to do.
The floors look wonderful...Robert did them himself and did an amazing job! Took him all week but it got done! We have had guests and baseball and busy-ness starting up with that.
I am anxious for spring to get kicked into full gear...we had snow flurries this morning! But I am ready for sunny days and green grass and trees. My goal this season is to get grass growing in this blasted yard....we will see...I know it takes several seasons for it to look nice and full but I need grass!
We are halfway thru with our foster care classes...we still have medicals and home visits to knock out and at this point we aren't in a huge rush, though it's hard not to be. Nolan is a handful and still quite needy of me so taking our time with it is good. Our county is in desperate need of foster/adopt parents so we likely won't be waiting long for a call. We are both hesitant and excited about starting this venture...nervous about the many unknowns but excited as well. I would prefer to be into summer before we are giving things a go officially. Nolan will be 18 months and our days will be less busy with practices and school and homework and what not. Of course the big boys will be home and my quiet times will be nonexistent! Either way...time is good :)
Birthday's are coming around again too...Jakeb is fast approaching his 11th birthday! Crazy. Really just crazy.
Hope you have a great day...stay warm!
