February update

We received our February update on Monday. Boy things are slow!  It's killing me. I'm getting anxious!  The closer we get, the harder the waiting becomes. We moved up 3 spots to #37. We did get some good news the last part of January about the closure rumors. Rumors they were and it sounds like there is still a positive view on international adoptions. That was a relief. I was beginning to research what our other options might be.

We did get Kaitlyn's room upstairs almost completed!  The wall is up and it is painted. We just need a door and to get the base molding back on. Hopefully a couple weeks and she will be moving in. It looks really cute!  I'll post pictures when she's moved in. She's excited!!!  Now I just need to get the upstairs and basement cleaned up and organized. Next project will be the kids bathroom. I can't wait! New floor and cabinets!!!  I still need to paint the rest of the upstairs bonus room and both bedrooms for our little ones. Lots to do!!!!  It's a bit overwhelming!

Kaitlyn had another tumbling meet last weekend in Edwardsville. It was a fun one!  She's loving every minute of it. We are so proud of how much she has learned since June. We will be in Decatur next weekend and Pana the first weekend in March. She has one coming up in Effingham for anyone who would like to come watch!  It's really fun to watch all the kids. She's already talking about next year so I guess we are committed for a while.  Kian went with us last weekend and now he wants to do team tumbling. He loves his boys tumbling class!

The snow and cold has kept us in quite a bit so not much to share. I'm ready for spring! How about you?!!!!
