Memory tag!!!

1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

POTTY NEWS

Well about a week ago one of Brennan's friends came over and while he was here used the potty and Brennan saw him. Well it got Brennan excited about using the potty himself, and last thursday he informed us that he needed to go potty and he actually did. But even more shocking was this morning Kate says" I pee pee" so we took her to the bathroom and she actually pee-peed in the potty. We are so proud of both of them and shocked . other than that we are all doing ok and trudging the road of happy destiny.

Results from court

Well we went to court last Wednesday and I should have written earlier but things have been really busy. The judge decided to give the birth parents 3 more months to get thier act together. He really came down hard on the mother he said " YOU ARE PREGNANT AGAIN, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? " Her responce was it was an accident. He said "YOU WILL NOT DO THIS AGAIN TO ANOTHER CHILD I WANT A DRUG TEST RIGHT NOW, AND YOU BETTER HOPE THAT IT COMES UP NEGATIVE." Well it did she was crying saying that she had been clean for 7 months and why didn't anyone believe her. I wanted to just tell her " oh I dont know maybe cause you are an addict and people dont trust people like us untill we show them that we are seriously working some kind of program ." But un like me I kept my mouth shut and didnt say anything. So the good points in the situation are that we still have the kids for any where from 3 to 6 months. We would like to thank everyone for thier prayers and phone calls showing that you care. We love you all and adore your friendship.

Jazz Fest and Grandisle

Just thought I would write about our weekend, Janels family all came into town with the exception of her brother Peter and his family and we are sorry that they couldnt make it . Well I took Friday off and we went to Jazzfest. We were able to see a few small name bands that we didnt know, and we also saw Robert Plant and Allison Kraus, then Sheryl Crow headlined. When she was done singing we left and headed to Grandisle. Janel had planned the trip and we had 2 cabins rented for the weekend. It was fun. We got to play in the ocean on Saturday and Brennan loved the waves. He and I walked out about 50 yards and the water was about chest high but when the waves came in they were head high and he just laughed so hard. He loved the water hitting us in the face, he would laugh until he couldn't catch his breath so we would turn our backs to the waves for awhile . We bought the kids these swimsuits with built in floatation in the chest and backs so they look like they are all BUFF like they went to the gym to work out. Saturday night we found some fresh shrimp and boiled them for dinner. We watched Harry Potter last night and all crashed early. But how does the saying go early to bed early to rise 4:30 Kate was awake so her and I played and about 5:45 Brennan woke up so then everyone else had to wake up. Thats just how it is. He cant be as quiet as kate and I . Well as soon as we get the pictures downloaded I will post them.
