Thank You!!

We have been in the adoption process for several months now, but as I was sending out our flyers to all of our close friends and family, I decided it was a good time to make it 'Facebook Official'.  We were very specific about telling our closest friends and family in person and then from there slowly spreading our news.  Yesterday I sat down and addressed 50+ envelopes with our flyers.  (Mom helped a little last week while we were at their house.) That made this whole process a little bit more realistic.  Today I am going to call and inquire about what we need to do to start our home study!  I would tell you what that means, but I don't really know yet.  I know it's something we have to do and that's about all I know for certain.

I wanted to thank all of our friends and family that have taken time to encourage us through this process.  We know this is going to be a long hard process, so we are going to need all the love, support and encouragement that we can get!  Thank you!  I was in tears several different times yesterday.  I had a few people message me and give such great encouragement!  Thank you!!

I had a few people ask how we are going about finding a baby.  The letters that I addressed yesterday go in to more detail about that.  We are doing a domestic private adoption.  We are not going through an agent.  We are searching for our own mom.  We are needing you to help us, too!  We are wanting to find a birth mom here in the state of Georgia, but are not opposed to one in another state.  I know we have lots of friends and family in other states, so don't think just because you are not in Georgia that you can not help.  You can!  Please contact us with any and all questions!  If its about our personal adoption or if this is something you have considered doing, but didn't know where to begin.  I hope that by us doing this, this will help others see and know that you can too!

Signed, sealed, delivered!

Picking It Back Up

It's been a minute. Actually it's been five years.  I'll just say life got crazy busy adding our girl.  So let's start with today. Today I am sitting and thinking about everything. Life. We are currently living in an apartment in Macon. A loft apartment, meaning it's real expensive. Not much more about it is fancy. We do have an elevator but that's about it. We are in the meh, middle stages of building our house. June 2018, we bought 21.55 acres in a spot in the road called Forsyth. It's just outside of McDonough (where we grew up) and Macon. We looked in lots of places, tired to decide where we wanted to raise our kids. We wanted excellent schools and wanted to in a good church. June 2019, we sold our house on April Drive in Conyers and moved to The Lofts at Bass while we built our home. We wanted to go ahead and get the big kids in school where they would be once the house was complete. They are there!  We are hoping to be in it by Halloween. Our bu...

We're Back!

So I wanted to try to start blogging again. I went to my blog and I can't figure out how to work it. It's different, and I couldn't make it cute. So have moved back to Blogger. Here we are. This is my favorite time of year to do fun Pinterest crafts, so watch out! I will try to feed the family and wash clothes, but for the most part, you can find me some where doing a DIY project. 'Til then-Bye!
