Update

So just to update everyone we are not getting the baby. We got to talk to the case worker in Idaho today and he said the Grandmother is fighting for the baby so we are out of luck. Oh well better luck next time right.

Update!

Well, we had the homestudy man was that ever stressful. It went well and now is the waiting game. We had a little bump in our road because the birth mom wants to still try to keep her baby so the adoption is still up in the air. We hope that all will go well but it is a guessing game. The doctors schedule a C-section for the 2oth of Dec. so if everything does go according to plan and the baby is healthy we might not be here for Christmas. We found out that the birth dad has brown hair and green eyes just like Steven, so that's exciting. The doctors say that the baby is moving around a lot and the birth mom might get to go home. We are grateful for all your prayers and ask to still keep us in them so that everything may go according to plan.

NOT JUST BIG BUT HUGE NEWS

Tonight we received a call from the case worker in Idaho working on our future babies case. Drum roll please.............................................................The birth mother choose us to be blessed with her little boy. I cant explain the excitement and joy that I am feeling right now, but I can tell all of you thanks for the prayers. We know that they helped with this and we cant be more grateful. Now we just have to play the waiting game and hope all the legal stuff gets done in time. We also will have to get to Idaho never been to Idaho but I hear that its cold. Lucky us Steve's company offers adoption reimbursement so as soon as the adoption is finalized they will reimburse us up to 5k in expense, just got to get the money together first. I feel so selfish saying this but please keep us in your prayers. I know with the Lords help this will happen. We will keep everyone updated so stay tuned.

BIG NEWS

So we are very excited right now and want to share some big news with everyone. No we are still not pregnant but close. Last Monday out of no were we received a email from LDS Family services about a placement opportunity. We were both kind of shocked because its been a year since we started the adoption process and have done nothing for at least six months. We responded back to our case worker about the email and suddenly we were being rushed through paper work. The baby is a little boy due December 25Th so he is a Christmas baby. His mother has Mytonic Dystrophy and it is very likely he will have it as well. The birth mother is located in Idaho so it will be a nice little trip. It will also be the best five year anniversary present and Christmas present. We are still not for sure the family that will be blessed with this little guy but are hopes are high and we were the first one on the list. Now its all a matter of getting the cash together to pay for the homestudy and other fees. Please remember us in your prayers and hopefully soon we will have even better news for everyone, but we are still trying not to let our hopes get too high.

Update

Just to let everyone know my surgery went well. I am still pretty sore but hopefully this surgery fix my getting pregnant problems. The doctor took off a quarter size cyst and checked everything and said I should be good to go. Also, I have no idea what I did but I managed to erase all of my pictures off of my blog because I wanted to try to put a slide show on my blog. Which by the way is very hard and it does not look right. So make a note to yourselve to be careful if your trying to put a slide show. I had to go reload all of my pictures again. I was going to show you pictures of my stitches but I didn't want to gross anyone out. So no pics this time.

Life is Crazy!

So probably you all stop looking at my blog because I haven't updated it in forever and your probably thinking that we have died or something, but life is busy so forgive me on not blogging. Well to get you caught up about us, I have been working two jobs one for the autistic kid in the afternoon and the other I have been working at an elementary school teaching a child sign language because he is losing his hearing. I have been in and out of the doctors because of my health and I am having surgery on Monday for my endometriosis. Steven has been busy with his job at GoDaddy and is trying to get on with Boeing. He has officially become a cowboy. Thanks dad! My husband a while ago didn't even like to go near horses has now gone on an overnight outing with my dad, Nick and a few of my dad's friends. They had a great time. Here are only a few pics from their trip. It will be neat when my brother gets home from his mission and they can go on rides together.

We are going on the walk to cure diabetes soon and we got our shirts for our dogs and we just had to try them on. They look so funny in them.

It is almost November which means, our 5th Anniversary. Can you believe it because I can't it seems like yesterday that we were married. It's crazy how life has changed for us in these past five years.

Oh, Man It's Over!

I just finished this wonderful series of books and I need to find a new series quick before I get sad that there are no more books about these great characters. I fell in love with these books because they were awesome. They are a little adventurous, romantic, and spiritual now you can't get much better than that. My mother-n-law said I had to read them. They were great and now Brittany is reading them and can't put them down. It is really nice to be able to read again. After two years of only being able to read textbooks it is so nice to read good old novels. So if your looking for a new series to read this one is great.
