“Do you have to pee?”That’s the question that’s heard about every 20 minutes or so around our house for a week now. The baby bug is being potty-training and it’s going well. She’s not fully potty-trained yet, but she’s getting there.

It’s 11pm and we’re finally home from a long day of a lot of new year’s stuff. It all started with prayers at Temple, and ended with me winning 5 bucks playing one round of blackjack, so all in all a good day.

Chloe has a Pooh Bear video game. In one of the games it shows a window that is shaped a certain way and 4 choices of what that shape is. After playing a couple of times, Chloe has figured out that if she gets the answer wrong twice, pooh will help her pick [...]
Harry Potter book 7 comes out July 21. *doing the happy dance*
So, for those of you fundraising, collecting donations, selling items to help pay for the adoption costs? How is that going? What is working or not working?
We should be getting a bill for our homestudy soon and we are about to dive deep into trying to fundraise in the next week. [...]
