So my wife found this blog I began and never returned to. She called me on it. I had completely forgotten I ever attempted it. Since I last wrote my world has been turned upside down. We have been fostering two children, B is a girl and she is 3 and N is a boy and he is 2. We have had them for a little over two months and it looks (hopefully, hopefully, hopefully) as if their case plan may change so we can adopt them.
It's been a struggle. Kristin worries she isn't doing everything she always wanted to do..and me? I'm just trying to survive. It doesnt help that I work and go to school full time. I try to squeeze in my gym time...and I do most days of the week...but the juggling is exhausting and I'd be lying if I didn't say there were times I second guessed my decision to parent two children at such an intense age. Don't get me wrong..my wife kicks ass! Shes like a supah ninja, ready to whisk the kids out of daddys hair when homework comes calling. Still...it's a big adjustment.
I have exciting news. News that has me glued to the computer, scouring travel sites about Oregon. Last night I booked a week long trip so Kristin and I can finally take the honeymoon we never had! We plan on roaming the Oregon coast, hiking, whale watching and whatever else interesting we can find. We have other motives though, we are planning to see if its a place we would want to move. If so, we will try to be out of AZ in 3 years or so, after the kids get adopted (hopefully!)

Tonight cousin kylie is over and the Muppets have taken over my big screen. Tomorrow is church and, oh, that holiday called Easter.

Happy easter all.
