Quickie

I never think I have anything interesting to blog about - what's so exciting about running a family of 16 kids, LOL?!  So - the quick update is this:
*We have all passports back now except the baby's, whose adoption will be finalized this month, and our daughter that was born in California.  We are waiting on her birth certificate.  I ordered it through an online service that says it will have it to me in about 2 weeks, but I've also heard it'll take a year.
*The kids all got 4 shots each and will go back in a month to get two more.  Fun, fun!
*We're incorporating next week, then applying for non-profit status
*My tickets are paid for to fly to Africa in March and visit our adopted daughters who aren't allowed to immigrate.  We will start paperwork on that side once I/we get there.
*I'm practically begging dh to come with me.
*I'm aiming to move in June or July . . . dh thinks it will be at LEAST a year.  In these issues, I usually end up being right - we'll see
*I'm still making bread 4+ times a week.  Just made it again this morning before everyone went off to school.
*We de-junked two rooms . . . .

TTFN!

About Me

Welcome to our family blog! We appreciate you stopping in and reading about our family. Life is a journey in more ways than one.... this blog shares our joys and challenges with "homesteading" on just one acre in suburbia, raising a LARGE family, cooking, canning, gardening, adoption, waiting for the time to be right to move to the country (and preparing for that time), and finally, other musings of this mama's heart.
