October Summer Days

Today we went to the park with Anna and Keely (and baby to come) and Charity and Caleb (and baby to come)[I was very careful not to eat or drink whatever Anna and charity have, to avoid having a baby soon in our family].

Matt and Caleb had a grand time chasing squirrels all around the park. Its funny how much fun they were having, although they never even came close to actually catching one. Kayla and Keely were somewhat more girly, playing on the equipment the "right" way, and sitting and "talking". Very cute when Keely cried when her Kayla was leaving.

Life around here has been somewhat crazy. We continue to bounce between unpacking and organizing, cleaning/maintaining the house, and planning the adoption party. I'm looking forward to things slowing down a bit after most of the unpacking is done, and the adoption party is over.

Speaking of the adoption, we should receive a court date any day now. I'm hoping that it is soon-- I can't wait to hold their new birth certificates in my hands-- and have proof of what I've known from the first day they came home-- that they'll always be my babies.

Well, I've gotta get cleaning. We're going to build-a-bear with grandma Sue, grandpa Jeff, and aunt Jillian. Apparently that's part of their adoption presents-- which means I have a lot to get done before then.
