More pics in my Hubby's blog!


My husband is an amazing photographer, yet it is SOOO hard to get him to remember to take photos of the boys. Check out a few recent Nur & Dur pics here:

Paperwork, paperwork, and more paperwork!


We have completed our state fingerprinting and all of the required home study paperwork as of today! We should soon start the home study visits and hopefully the write-up will go quickly as it has been less than 2 years since our social worker wrote the last one. BIG changes in those 2 years though….2 of them….NUR & DUR!

Paperwork has been piling for Nur and Dur as well. We finally received the necessary letter from OR State to complete their re-adoption. I filed the paperwork with our local courts this week, so hopefully I'll get a signed judgment within 7-10 days….FINALLY!

Also, our dossier is almost complete! Much, much easier this time around, since we have "been there, done that!". A lot of cut and paste, so hopefully we'll be able to submit our dossier as soon as the home study is complete.

WHEW!!!!!!!

I haven't uploaded pics in a while, but feel bad not posting, so here are a few pics stolen from my Facebook account!
