I was hoping to have new family pictures for you all to see on this post but we had to cancel our appointment we had last night. Keely has been sick with a lot of trouble breathing from her asthma acting up. I also need to do the girls hair and didn't get that done yesterday and the weather was rainy and cold. We have it rescheduled for next week so hopefully we will have new pictures up then. Everyone around here has been sick with something it seems. Tj is the only one who hasn't felt bad this week. Haley was home from school on Tuesday and I took her to the doctor. They gave her some antibiotics and she is feeling better. I think it's going to be a long winter since we all already have had some kind of sickness. Keely struggled all winter last year with respiratory problems and after getting her on her treatments for asthma it helped a lot. It's looking like this winter is going to be the same story. Last week our old neighbor and I had our garage sale on Thursday and Friday only. When I got there Saturday morning to put stuff out there weren't a lot of people out so we decided not to have it and went to garage sales ourselves! Later in the afternoon Tj's mentor came and got him and they went to the game. Scott and I went out on a little date when Haley offered to keep the girls. We just went out and did some shopping for Tj and Tate's birthdays that are coming up and then went out for supper. Of course the game was on at the restaurant so we did get to watch some of the game. We got home around 9pm and put the girls to bed and spent the rest of the evening relaxing. Haley, Tj and our neighbor's 13 year old daughter stayed up almost all night playing wii. Thank goodness they have the basement to hang out in and were quiet. Sunday when we got up we all loaded up in the suburban and went to Fremont to meet my mom. My brother had a little car that we decided we wanted to buy from him to cut out some of the money we are spending on gas every week running kids here and there. While we were there we went out for lunch then came back home. It was a very quiet trip home since everyone was so tired from staying up all night the night before and it was the girls nap time. This week has been a good week and we sure are glad it's Friday! At the beginning of the week we got a call from our foster care agency and they wanted to know if we would consider taking a set of twins that were a month old and just being released from the hospital. It was very shocking to get a call like this since they did know that we had changed our mind about wanting an infant right now. We did really consider it and after deciding it isn't the right time we told them we didn't want to be considered. Then again yesterday we got another call for a 2 day old baby boy. We also told them no to this situation. I am sure we will adopt an infant again someday but we know these two situations weren't for us. We will know when the right situation is presented to us and we will want to be considered. If that is next week or next year we will wait until its the right time. We are doing respite this weekend for a boy we have had before. He is a real talker and asks tons of questions about everything. He is 12 so hopefully him and TJ and Haley get a long good. Haley is also having a friend over tonight so I am a little worried about what I could possibly make that is going to feed 8 people. I am thinking maybe spaghetti. I have finally figured out how to cook for 6 of us but even then there are no left overs. Scott misses that because we use to have so much left overs and he could take it for his lunches. Tj will go skating tonight and I am taking Haley and her friend to get their nails done. As soon as she gets her allowance she thinks she needs to spend some of it I guess. With all this cooler weather we probably won't do too much this weekend but I guess you never know.
