Fun with Helmets

Clint has been riding his motorcycle now that it's warm. The boys LOVE to wear the motorcycle helmets. It makes us laugh every time. Their bodies are so small and the helmets are so big.


FC2 worked very hard going "poopy in the potty" so he could earn the toy airplane he has in his hands. It is his favorite toy now. It's almost always in his hands.

Happy Father's Day

This Father's Day I've been thinking a lot about all the wonderful fathers in my life, who are true examples of what it means to be noble and honorable. There are many many men who have been good examples to me throughout my life, but today I want to pay tribute to two of them.

My Dad is amazing. He's suffered chronic intense pain for years and years. Despite the pain and discomfort, he doesn't stray, he doesn't murmur, he stays true to what he knows is right. Not only that he makes his life about us, his children. He has ALWAYS been there for me when I've needed him. I feel so blessed to be his daughter.


Secondly, my wonderful husband Clint. He's my better half. He teaches me what it means to serve others. He's so selfless and I adore him. As a father to our two foster sons he's AMAZING. I can always count on him to step in and take care of them when I can't. I truly adore this man!!!
Happy Fathers Day!!!

Excited to be big brothers


We told the boys about the baby a couple weeks ago. They are SO EXCITED! FC1 drew me this picture the next day. The bigger "person" is me, and the little "person" is the baby after it's out of my tummy. Every day they come and put their little hands on my tummy and tell me that the baby is getting bigger. FC2 is convinced that he has a baby in his tummy too. It's so fun to all be excited together.

Our Lil' Miracle


We're SO EXCITED to announce that we are pregnant. We've truly been blessed with a miracle. Our lil'Ross is due December 29th.

We wanted to thank all of you who have supported us in our adoption endeavors. Especially those who posted our adoption blog buttons and helped us spread the word. We still hope to adopt our foster sons, but are not looking to adopt a baby anymore. Thank you so much for your support!

Duckies on a Sunday Afternoon

Meet Joe and Dorris:

It's becoming a Sunday afternoon tradition in our home that we get out the duckies and have all sorts of ducky adventures. Of all the ducks and other creatures, the two that FC2 loves the most and insists on playing with every time are Joe and Dorris. FC2 named them himself. Joe and Dorris have all kinds of adventures with pirates, sports heros, Santa and his reindeer, and the Easter Bunny Duck. I just can't help wondering why he's so drawn to those particular ducks?
