Due Date Dawning

I'm sure if anyone is still reading this poor excuse for a blog, you're probably wondering what is going on with our adoption. Well it's still on! I have been so lucky to attend all of the doctor apointments, and was asked to be in the delivery room and cut the umbilical cord! This family has seriously been so wonderful to us, and while open adoption can be a daunting thought at times, I am so happy to go through it with them. Veronica just had her 19th birthday and we got to be a part of it. Their extended family is great too. I'm so happy we will only have glowing things to say about our son's birthmom! She is so incredible and strong. I can't imagine how difficult this will be for her, but she keeps a positive attitude and calms my concerns. Just a few weeks to go!

What's New?

So what would you do if you found out you were having a baby in 4 months? Here's what we've been doing!

My wonderful parents took us and my brother and his wife to Disneyland and California Adventure!

(The guy in front was some unlucky kid we got to sit in front, since none of us wanted to get soaked again)

(Adam is not eating the sun. It's just a reflection of the picture of the picture)

We spent some time at Bear Lake with my family!
(Obviously not pictured...Didn't get the pics from the rest of the fam)
Spent a few days swimming, playing games, and enjoying one another's company.

Went to Island Park with Adam's Family (not pictured)
(and not the freakish Adams Family) (Seriously don't know where all our good pictures went)

Adam's parents bought a couple of RZR atvs, similar to this one I found online. Super fun! We were lucky enough to get a great rainstorm and lots of mud to go through! Mosquitoes were terrible, but only if you slowed down :) We also went hiking in Yellowstone and ate lots of yummy food!

Other Idaho highlights include boating, 4th of July, and a Baby Shower for the little guy on the way. Thanks everyone! He's going to be one lucky boy with such great friends and family!

I went to Girls' Camp with these lovely ladies

We spent 3 THRILLING days in Douglas, AZ.
It's okay if you've never heard of it. We hadn't either. It's in the Southeast corner of Arizona, next to New Mexico and "Old" Mexico. We could see the Mexican boarder from our hotel.  Adam had to go for work so I tagged along. Here's a picture of their "International" airport :) Not a place I need to go again.

Adam got to take a more fun trip to Amsterdam...without me.

And like every NORMAL couple waiting for a new baby, we got a new PUPPY

We named her Rainey and she has been so much fun! Jax adores her! They play together all day long and are inseparable, which hopefully will be nice when the baby comes!
