Our progress

I have been so busy trying to get ready to bring two new kids home, that I haven't had time to update! I have tried to get all the appointments taken care of for the kids (dentist, doctor, etc) that they would need in the next 6 months. I've also been working on registration for school for 4 of the kids for this Fall. It seems so early for that , but it will be here before you now it! We have had several appointments a week for the past several weeks. Finally, I think we are slowing down.

I've also been doing quite a bit of nesting! We now have about 15 meals in the freezer and I am working on more. For the most part, we have just been doubling dinners and freezing them. My goal is to get 30 in there! I've got breakfasts, lunches, dinners and a few desserts in there too. I want it to be as easy as possible for the family during travel and when the kids get home. I'd much rather hang out with the kids than cook dinner!

We have several of the documents that we need for the kids, but we still need a few more before we can get a travel date. They really should be done any day now. The kids seem to be doing well. A couple of families that were there took lots of pictures of them and said they are just precious. I believe it. Our little girl looks like she has had some long-term malnutrition. They both have malaria. We'll get them the medical care they need.

Thank you so much for all your prayers and words of encouragement and I promise I will keep you better updated!
