Happy New Year!!

Our family had a wonderful 2012 and we are very much looking forward to a fantastic 2013. Yes, I kind of dropped out of the blogging world a bit, but I think it's my subconscious trying not to blab too much before it's a done deal (we have some exciting things in the works for our family and we are waiting to see if they pan out). We are still working like crazy to get our paperwork completed to bring Nathan home. We have had our first homestudy visit when our social worker came for Lee's 6 month post adoption visit. YES! It has been SIX whole months with little man, and it has been great! All of the kiddos are doing really well. Emma is growing taller and loves animals more than ever. Silas is growing taller and is scared of dogs as much as ever. haha Since we raised the litter of kittens, he has grown fond of cats. While I have mentioned cats, we still have two of the kittens from the litter (Ping Ping and Candy). Lucy has also hit a growth spurt... I am noticing a trend here ;) Joseph is spunky as ever and Lee is his little shadow. Those two are the best of buds. I am hoping to be able to get on here more. Things are about to settle down alot for a while before the pick right back up into crazy mode again. Juggling 5 kiddos with homeschooling, doctor visits, sports, and religious education (add in the dog and litter of kittens we were raising- SHEESH! What was I thinking?! haha) is all very time consuming. Also, trying to get things done on time for Nathan, which has been going rather well. Well, Happy New Year to all of you in the blogging world! And I hope you have all had a very merry Christmas. We had a blast and I am hope to share more on that soon. We are still kind of recovering from it all haha Blessings, Tasha
