What a Week!!

This week has flown by, you don't want to even know what our daily schedule looks like because it is crazy. We started seeing a psychologist for our psych evaluation for the adoption this week, I will blog separately about that because it was interesting. We also had other adoption things, pictures, and just life to squeeze in this past week. However, the biggest addition to our week was Birthdays!

We celebrated Ryan's Thursday night between work and activities. I made him Stromboli (his favorite meal) and the boys accosted him with presents when he walked in the door from work. That was end of the excitement of his birthday.

Liam's birthday is a little more involved. On Friday night we ate dinner in the living room while watching a movie! We had appetizers and pie for dessert. He got to open any presents he got in the mail that night also and the present from us. Then it was off to bed. Saturday we cleaned and prepared for his friend party. At 2:00, 12 kindergarten age children dropped in and we tried to entertain them for 2 hours. It wasn't raining out and the temp was above 32 F, so we sent them out in the backyard for the last half hour of fun. Ryan said the limit on friends next year is 4. After everyone was gone, we drove up to my brother and sister in law's house for another party. Luckily I have the greatest sister in law in the whole world and she prepared everything for this party. It was much more relaxed at the family party and I didn't even drink the wine that was offered. On that side of our family we have 6 birthdays in Nov. and one late Oct. that we celebrate. It is a lot of fun because all of the cousins get together. On Sunday Liam has another birthday party to go to and we get to just sit back and relax.

Thanks to all that sent birthday wishes. We have been busy and haven't responded as quickly as we would have liked. Back to Monday tomorrow!
