Reassurances

The other day, I was at the park with my kids and my friend's kids and I just kind of sat back on the bench and watched them all interact. My friend's youngest is 2 and it was so cute to watch Zack around him. Zack basically bailed on everything he likes to do at the park and played with Jamison the whole time. He helped him when he tripped and he made suggestions of different places to play. He asked him if he was thirsty and if he had to go potty (although he's in diapers). He held him on his lap going down the slide. For an hour he was devoted to his cute little friend. I am just constantly reassured that he is going to be a great big brother to our next baby...whenever we receive that blessing.

Slave to the Computer

I forgot how hard waiting is or maybe I knowingly blocked it out. I find myself googling like crazy to find places to post a classified or do anything I can to get us out there. We've had a couple of situations forwarded to us from friends of friends (keep them coming by the way) and we have jumped on them but have heard nothing. I was talking to my good friend Kris J, who is waiting for her baby in Korea, last night at t-ball practice and we were talking about how much harder it is if you think there is a possibility for you rather than just having no prospects at all. It makes you CRAZY. I check my email constantly...Robb is IM'ing me all the time to see if I've heard anything. I try to get my mind on other things but it just always drifts back. It makes me want to eat ice cream or go shopping...but I will abstain. In my prayers this morning, I asked Heavenly Father to please help me be patient with His timeline and where ever our baby is right now to please take care of him/her.

Baby Clothes

Last Saturday, we were coming home from an exhausting afternoon swimming at the rec center and we asked the boys what they wanted to do the rest of the evening. Zack piped right up and said, "Let's go buy some baby clothes!" We kind of chuckled and asked why we would do that. Zack said, "Because we're going to get a baby and I think it's going to be soon." (From Zack's lips to God's ears...) We asked him if he would get boy or girl clothes. He then realized we didn't know what kind to buy yet since we haven't been selected. It was so cute to see how excited he was though. He's going to be a great big brother.
