The long wait for more posts

Today I am posting for the first time in a long time.... I have had a little break from the blogging but I again find that I need to get the word out about our family and what has been going on.

We again find ourselves wanting to adopt again, so on Saturday we went to this years FSA adoption conference looking for some help on how to start the process again.  We have a few things that are causing this round to be a little harder.  We adopted via LDS Family Services for our first and found that they did good with trying to help the women make the best decision for them and the babies.  So now with recent changes they are no-longer doing adoptions and that has left us with trying to find a different method of adoption.  Back to the conference we went hoping for news or pointers and ended up leaving before lunch.  We went to the first class and attempted to learn about foster care and this we can say is NOT for us.  We did not like how they were not giving us all the facts and hiding some of the stuff we would not like, and with Miriam's first hand dealing with the children in Foster Care we have opted out on that option.  So the next was to see if we could get ideas about other adoption groups that would be a good fit for us but we did not get any of that info.  So we are back to square one and on our own this time.  We both left real sad and not sure what to do, but I can say Miriam is back on it this morning she has already talked with a new agency and had some good news.  So that is the adoption update.

On the other side of life the little man is picking up on many words and we are both on top of what we do and say because he is a sponge.  He loves picking up rocks and showing us his finds and loves the outside.  He will be a great Boy Scout.  He kicks the ball and catches bugs (Mom does not like that part as much because he loves to bring them to her and give her the mashed dead bugs).  He has some great dance moves and loves to sing along to the music.  What a little man.....

More to come keep checking back.
