Fun Weekend




Daniel had a great time this weekend even though he is teething. We went to Little Gym for the first time on Saturday morning at 8:15am! Daniel is the youngest person in his class, but he was not afraid to try anything. Some of the other babies were crying, but not Daniel. He tumbled, and jumped and even tried hanging from a bar. I must say it is a very fun time for the parents as well. Daddy needs to make a guest appearance during one of the classes :)

On Sunday we went to church and Daniel played with his friends in the nursery. Somehow Daniel ended up biting me on the arm. I was so surprised that it happened. (of course when it happened again on Monday, Daniel was told NO, NO and Mommy left the room which created a melt down).

On Sunday afternoon, Debbie and Joe came to visit for a cookout. Debbie and I had a lot of time to play with Daniel while Michael and Joe were tending to our basement issues. Joe discovered that our sump pump was corroded so Michael and Joe ended up going to Loews and installing a new one. Heartfelt thanks to out to Joe for all his hard work while he was our guest. Debbie got to see Daniel in his rare reflective/mellow mood (probably due to Motrin for teething). We played and bounced and tickled him all night. Plus he got to wear his 4th of July PJs.

Once Daniel went to sleep, all 4 of us enjoyed a great dinner outside on the deck. It was so wonderful to have an adult evening with friends. Debbie and Joe are adopting from Russia, so we are sending lots of prayers that their adoption happens soon.

It seems that I have lost my husband to Guitar Hero III - Legends of Rock for the Wii. He has been playing it non-stop for the last couple days. I think this is a flashback to his dream of being a guitar player in an 80's Rock Band. So now I get to watch Michael take over our family room and play his guitar all night . . . .

About Me

We first heard about Gladney Center for Adoption in January of 2005 when we met with Pastor Stephen and Paula. In March of 2005 we attended an orientation at Gladney in Fort Worth, Texas. We adopted Daniel on September 12, 2007! Now we are waiting for a special child to complete our family.
