Misleading Title .......

I suppose our blog title is a little misleading these days.  We are done with the adopting part, but adoption will always be a part of our lives.  We will still be blogging updates on our family, but no more major adoption news.  3 kids is it for us!  This is for various reasons ....... hard to fit more therapy appointments into our schedule, Luke is starting 1st grade and has some special "needs" of his own, and we no longer qualify for many countries to adopt from.  Plus, we just finished paying off the last adoption, so we need to rebuild our savings and make some serious progress on retirement and college savings.

We will also be including some things about the new journey we are on, which is for all of us to get healthy.  We just joined our local Y and hubby and I have both joined their "boot camp" class.  They focus on nutrition and exercise, so we are hoping for great results!  I recently completed another "boot camp" and it was wonderful!!!!!!  In 6 weeks, I lost about 10 pounds and several inches.  I'm so glad that we are doing this as a family.

It's funny ...... I know that we are doing exactly what we need to be doing.  When I did the boot camp last month, hubby had band practice on some nights, so we needed to find a babysitter.  Within minutes of asking, I had 2 babysitters available for all the nights!  Then, today in my first class at the Y, the leader paired us up and I ended up with another mama and we have a LOT in common.  Her son and Luke are 3 days apart!  We talked and talked and are excited to have found a new friend.

I hope all of you reading will continue to read about our antics .... seems we always have sort of drama going on!
