Long Overdue

Hi Everyone,
So sorry this has taken so long, but for all you who know me well this probably isn't a huge shocker that I haven't posted in like FOREVER :(.  Any who, now that we have that out of the way, let's get to the news...Things are pretty much the same in our world.  We continue to wait patiently (although on some days that term is a huge stretch, I would stay even for Rob.)  We are officially 8 months into our wait for a referral for our child, which is exciting that we have, as many of you remind me, probably waited longer than we will have to continue to wait (OPTIMISM is definitely becoming one of my strong points, for the next 30 seconds that is LOL).  Things have slowed in the adoption process for Ethiopia making wait times longer.  The funny thing is that I believe God knows what he is doing because truly we have used this extra time, enjoying the wonderful gifts God has blessed us with, you may know them as and Alex and Nico.  In all honesty, I truly have realized that everyday is a gift, being able to have two amazing little boys is a gift, and we are so blessed with you all our wonderful friends and family.  This baby, when he or she comes (and they will :)), will be so loved by so many amazing people and that makes me HAPPY.  And so that is where we are, counting our blessings, enjoying watching the boys play flag football, watching Paula Dean on food network (which I don't care who you are, she is so freakin cool) and finding the awesomeness in everyday (which I will tell you I have to shake myself sometimes and tell "me" to straighten up and sometimes my mom still does that for me too ;)).  So stay tuned...things are just getting interesting :)
So much love to you all, Thanks for your continued support!!!
