phone calls, phone calls, phone calls

So I made a couple of phone calls this morning but haven’t heard back from either. Though I did receive a follow up email from a Adoption Agency that I emailed weeks ago. Somehow the original email got lost somewhere, crazy computers :0). Though I’m 99% sure that I’ll stay with Children’s House International(CHI) I still want to see what they have to say.

We also got all the paper work from CHI, application and such. So we need to start filling that out and get the checks ready to send off :0).

Oh, the logo for the totes is getting drawn up. Well, I actually “drew” it but Rob is going to perfect it, cause I can’t draw… no laughing Rachael :0). I’ll hopefully be ordering the totes in about two weeks and then get them up on ebay and craigslist, along with giving them away for a $5 donation.

I’m so excited for the totes and I hope you are too!!

crazy sicknesses

This weekend didn’t really feel like a weekend. Jarod had a double header on Saturday, which meant he was gone ALL DAY! Though his team did clench the number one seed going into the playoffs :0). He’s very happy for his team but has decided that it is too far to drive for his games, one game including driving can take 5 hours or more! Therefore he’s going to play on a Nashua area team next year. That way the drive will only be about 15 minutes instead of 45-60.

He also had his first soccer game on Sunday on an official team. I believe he played center fullback and did well but the team is a bit rusty so they lost 5-3. Better luck next time! :0)

Preston had a good weekend but it was a bit overshadowed by Kyla. She took a SIX hour nap on Saturday, during which she threw up! She then got up took a bath and layed on the couch with me for about an hour. She then went back to bed until about 9 on Sunday got up and was crazy as ever. Very strange. Then Jarod got home and his stomach started feeling very yucky that afternoon. So he was down and out all afternoon!

Luckily I did get out Sunday afternoon. We had our first Halloween Carnival Committee Meeting or HCC. It went very well and we got a lot of ideas on the table. Now it’s on to getting them all done and having a successful Halloween Carnival!
