Well I know I have not been blogging much recently but we have been crazy busy. With the start of school and then in the beginning of September I went to Las Vegas for work. I had a great time there. Work sent me there to learn how to do 3rd trimester ultrasounds. The conference was wonderful and I learned alot and am very excited about learning how to do ultrasounds at work. Eventhough I was there for work we found plenty of time to enjoy the Las Vegas scene. We saw some shows and ate at some very nice restaurants and did some shopping. (I won't bore you with all the details) This may come to a shock to some of you but we did not gamble at all!!! (My mother is disowning me for this.) We had a great time. However on the way back we had a layover in Charlotte N.C. and while we were there we found out our flight to Cincinnati was cancelled due to a wind storm (remenants of a hurricane) There were winds up to 80 miles per hour at home so we had to spend the night in Charlotte without our luggage I might add. When we got home on Monday night I came home to all of the Northern Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana were without power. We had no electric till Thursday. Luckily my inlaws and my parents got power before we did so we were able to stay with them.
Then on Saturday we left for Disney World on a family vacation. This included me, AJ, my boys, my brother and his wife and there 2 daughters and my parents. We had a wonderful time in Disney we were there for a week. If anyone goes to Disney September is the perfect time to go. It is a little warm but the crowds are wonderful. We hardly waited in any lines there was no need for the fast pass. Some rides we were able to ride 2-3 times. We had to take the kids out of school which I said I would never do but for Disney it is worth it. I don't think I could ever go and wait hours in line knowing that in September there is no lines.
So anyway we are back home and getting back into our routine of school and work. I am catching up on everyones blogs and will hopefully be able to post more. I will some Disney pictures soon.
Update on our adoption process. We submitted an application for special needs. We said we would accept a minor special need. With the way the wait is getting longer and longer it was looking like we could be waiting like 10 years so we wanted to do anything to bring her home sooner. There are some seriously ill and disabled children waiting and I comment those families for accepting those children into there home. It takes a great deal of commitment to care for a child with those type of special needs but we thought we would not be able to handle a severly handicapped child at this point in our lives but we could handle a minor correctable special need. So we submitted our application, However it almost causes me more anxiety wondering of we will get a call soon or not. But this is were we are.
Hope everyone has a wonderfull weekend.
