I just realized I may need to rename my blog since we are now looking at sib groups of 2...maybe I jinxed myself by assuming we'd only adopt one...hmm...hope so ;)
Adding two makes a crew?
Add two and we'll snowshoe?
Plus two....pink and blue?
Hmm..might have to think about that for awhile...maybe I'll just wait until we have our kids home and do something along the lines of the Three Muskateers ;) I can't wait!

Where does the time go?
I can't believe it's been over a month since I posted last! Where has the summer gone?
Our update went smooth and we are officially approved to submit for sibling groups of two - very exciting! I can't believe we've been waiting over a year already! But, I definitely think it was a year well spent, learning about the process and figuring out exactly what we are comfortable with and what needs we can parent the best.
Our plans to build and move this fall are progessing well and much quicker that we anticipated. Our house has officially sold and we close on September 21st. There will be almost two months where we'll be in between houses but we have a couple options on places to stay and both would work very well. We plan to put all of our belongings in storage during those two months with the exception of our clothes and things we need and use daily. We are hoping to be able to move in around Thanksgiving - such a perfect time when we have SO many things to be thankful for!!
I can't wait to see what is in store for us in the future. So many changes in such little time and they are all going to be wonderful.
Steve and I were discussing paint colors last night and it dawned on me that since we are doing all the painting ourselves, I might as well save time and money and go ahead and paint one bedroom a color to suit a girl :) So the search is on for a girly paint color! Tyson is still deciding on what color he would like for his room and thinking about the prospect of possibly sharing his room with another boy. He wasn't really keen on the idea until I mentioned bunk beds...then he was all over it ;) My sister and I had bunk beds when I was younger and I loved them...even though I had to sleep on the bottom ;)
This weekend we are going on a family camping trip that we have been planning for months. We are camping on a Goat Island just off the shore of Lake Beltaine. Not sure where it gets its name...it doesn't really look like a goat and lets hope their are no wild goats on it! LOL! It's only 55 acres so that's highly unlikely! My sister and her family and Steve's kids and their spouses/signicifant others are all joining us, as well as Steve's nephew and his girlfriend. We are camping for three nights and will also be celebrating my 29th birthday on Sunday...that's right..it's a big one! My last twenty-something!!! Lake Beltaine is a beautiful lake and we are so excited to boat it and relax in the sun!!
Have a great weekend!!
*I checked it out and the island does actually look like a goat!! Or a Scottie Dog...hmmm...
