Well, our nieces and nephews have been out this week for Cousin Camp! It's been great fun! This is the reason for our delay in posting. We have been a touch preoccupied with 3 kids here this week, ages 6, 5, and 2 1/2. We've been going to the playground, at Bonkers, playing Wii, going swimming, painting photo frames, playing games, reading bedtime stories, and many other activities!
During all the chaos of going from none to 3 for the week, we did receive our adoption contract, POA, and translated home study! So we took an afternoon trip to Jeff City to get our papers authenticated by the Secretary of State with the kids in tow. The following day, Chris took the papers to TECO while I took the kids swimming at a friend's house. Soooo....tomorrow we are taking all 3 kids with us back to KC to pick up the papers from TECO and FedEx them to Taiwan! The documents should be ready around 3pm! We are also meeting Chris' parents while we're there and they are taking 2 of the kids for the next week. Larkin and Sheldon will spend a week with Nana and Papa before they drive them back out to North Carolina to be with Mommy and Daddy again.
So we will be down to just our nephew in the house. We meet back up with his Daddy (my brother) on Saturday for him to go home. The house will seem so quiet without them all here. Cousin Camp is a treasure and such a great time to get to know our little niece and nephews! It's not often that we get to spend this kind of time with them since they live so far away from us. I will miss them tons!! It's bittersweet for me. I will miss them, but at the same time I can get back to focusing on our Lillian and preparing for her to come home!
