baby heaven

this is so wonderful. This little baby is the SWEETEST. unfortunately Sebastian is not feeling well, and is up all night crying. So, we are exhausted with all these bottles and rocking and crying. long nights.. lol
but still it is amazing. God has blessed me truly.
like most newborns she enjoys the sling. i hope you enjoy these photos!

introducing

new baby

PRAISE GOD
we are getting a newborn baby tomorrow!!!!!
legal risk placement

just twiddling over here. no calls.
i got to go to the library with no kids and got a huge pile of books-
loved "another place at the table" a book about foster care...super good read

it's really all in GOD's hands

Passage Psalm 57:2:
²I will cry to God Most High, Who performs on my behalf and rewards me [Who brings to pass His purposes for me and surely completes them]!

this passage struck me last night. God most certainly started this flame in my heart to adopt. it wasn't anything i would have dreamed up on my own! to know that God WILL bring to pass his purposes for me, and not only that he preforms on my behalf and rewards me.. how amazing!

Not waiting anymore....

we didn't get the s..
I am such a baby, that I cried!
I can't really say much right now, cause I am feeling pretty discouraged.

still waiting..lol

still waiting on word about the sisters.
meanwhile, we went to a foster parent meeting last night, and that was fun.
all except for the part where i see a lady who took PRIDE classes with us holding her 1 month old!!
then i had a little pity party in my head where i whined "why not us?! where's our placement??"
lol
my inner brat coming out!!
But, I KNOW GOD has a plan. I know we are going to get the right /girls for us.
i just need a little more paitence!!

new referral!

new referral=
two sisters , 4 and 1
parental rights already terminated, they are looking for a legal risk home.


we submitted our home study- here's hoping!!!!

stupid blog

why i haven't posted all my christmas picts is cause blogger is being very bad... it won't let me post picts but like 1 time out of 20 i try...ridiculous!


nothing new is happening with the adoption/fostering.. all referrals have fallen through and no solid leads with children we have inquired about.


we are just trying to get back into the routine of things and all.


i found these awesome barbie like dolls at target today. they are " only hearts club " dolls

they are fully bendable and have beautiful faces, with glass like eyes...very cute.
i am happy to find them since lucca has been wanting barbies, but i was so not wanting to buy into all that entails...

the gingerbread fun

assembly-
in OKC we made two ginger bread houses, one for us to keep-

this first photo is the house we didnt keep that my cousin katie and lucca made



the boys working on our house with my aunt "sissy", and aunt susan

sebastian "helping" two lollypops at a time!
