Dj and Carson Birthday

It was DJ's and Carson's birthdays so we decided to PAR-TAY! It is crazy to think that DJ is 2 years old already and that Carson is even that much older! We are so happy to have them as our nephews and we love them both! It was also nice to see Brie and her family as well which is DJ's birthmother and her parents. With us going through the adoption process it is cool for us to see the relationship between Kimberly and Jason and DJ's birth parents. I know that it has nothing to do with the post but we are very excited that this week we should be fully approved and on the Itsaboutlove.org website!

What a great Saturday!

Yesterday we had a really fun day. It started out by waking up and going to both of my nephews championship little league football games. Unfortunately they both lost but they played really well. It was really fun but absolutely freezing. The wind was blowing very hard and started to rain/snow at the end. Later that night we went to the BYU vs Idaho game. It was really fun. It started at 7:30pm so it was a really late game. BYU spanked Idaho and the final score was 42-7! If you have not found out by now we are huge BYU fans! We had to be with going to that game last night because it was way late and super cold!

Infertility night

While I was at work today I had a strong feeling that it was important that we go to the infertility night with Friends supporting adoption (FSA)! I am very glad that we went because it was something that we needed! It is so nice to get with others that have the same issues as we do! The speaker was excellent! She mostly taught us the things that will help us become more successful with dealing with infertility! We recognized how we can do things both physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually! I have personally taken some things from that class that makes me want to be consistently a better person! We have grown to love FSA!

Adoption celebration date

So, if you follow us at all you will have known by now that we had our home study this past Thursday and we passed! As I say in the video above I was reading an adoption blog about a month or so ago and it said that when we finish we need to do something to celebrate all of the work we did to get approved. So, I took Shaileen out to The Roof which sits atop the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. We had the best seats in the house and were right in front of the temple. It was nice to sit down and reflect on what we have done. We also had a fun time discussing what names we love for both boys and girls. We should be fully approved in about 2 weeks approximately so as always we would appreciate everyone keeping us in their constant prayers because everyone certainly helps. We are just so excited to be able to bring a boy or girl into our home and be parents!
