So summer is officially here and I have been out of work for several weeks. I have been keeping the girls busy with playdates, classes, and hanging out in the pool. Lennah is loving her little explorers class. Karate she comes around to after she has been there for about 10 minutes and dance I think is probably not going to be around much longer. Delylah is loving her music class and I think she is going to be the musicial kid in the house since she loves singing and dancing so much. We have been fortunate enough to also have some playdates that were long over due with some wonderful friends. I have to admit our weekends were pretty boring for the kids while we were going through our adoption classes. Lennah and Delylah missed their friends and have been so happy to spend time with other kids. We also have some other playdates coming up in the next several days before we head out of town. Which of course is the highlight of the summer since we have a 9 day vacation planned. We originally planned to go up to Jersey and NY to visit friends and family but Lennah and Delylah decided to beg to add some other fun stuff to the trip and we couldn't resist their pleas. Actually we got a flyer in the mail for the Wilderness in the Smokies lodge which has 3 waterparks. The girls got a hold of the flyer and begged to go there. We were thinking about taking them for their adoption day which is coming up next month. Then we realized it be a lot easier to head back through Pennsylvania and Tennessee and hit it up on the way back. So in turn we are shortening our NY/NJ trip to 6 days and taking three days to head back so we could visit Hershey Park, Gettysburg, and then go to the Wilderness Lodge. The girls are super excited because we were going to take them to NYC which they cannot wait to see where mommy is from and go to the Jersey shore. It is so funny because Lennah tells people mommy is from Ork. She for some reason keeps leaving out the New and Y.

On that note I have to say the kids say some funny stuff these days and nothing gets past them. Tonight someone was passing by the house and the dogs started barking insanely. I told them to shut up and Delylah turns to me and says mommy no say that that is bad. I had to crack up. They just say wild things lately and it just shows how much they are growing up.

As for the adoption front we are just waiting patiently. We also heard that the boys we were interested in had been placed with a family so we are just waiting for a match from our agency. I am in so much wonder as to who our children are and when they will be here.

I had a lot of great photos I took from the past few weeks. So I am posting a bunch. Enjoy all.
