Welcome to toddlerhood....

Well, it's official. Greg and I are parents. And not just with one...but two girls! We received our first foster placement last week....and as you've noticed no new postings since new years because we've had our hands full. The girls will be turning 2 and 3 years old in a few months so we've been dropped right in the middle of the wonders of toddler hood...and it's exhausting! I seriously can't remember ever being this tired and just falling into bed. But it's all worth it with the amazing smiles and hugs I get every morning and the giggles all day long (minus a tantrum here and there ;-) I guess it's all par for the course. Unfortunately, I won't be able to post any pictures of the girls due to confidentiality laws and privacy for their situation. Being that we are strictly fostering them at this point means there are certain guidelines we have to follow to be certain that they are protected...and since my blog is "public" I have to follow them here too. So, you'll just have to stop by if you're ever in the neighborhood to meet them in person. Keep us all in your prayers...and put in an extra request for some sleep ;-)

Happy New Year!!!

We arrived home from the wedding to find our dear friends Jay & Tre ready to ring in the new year with us...we knew they were going to be there and were prepared for several other people but alas the cold bug must have visited everyone else b/c they all ended up bowing out. One of our neighbors we just recently met came over and our small but mighty group rang in the new year with true style...ok we were in sweats and jeans but we had fun none the less.
