Consolidation
I have decided that I am going to consolidate my two blogs and from now on I will be using one blog to chronicle my life: Jill, The WARRIOR. I hope to see you all there! Thanks!

Strabismus surgery
The twins had eye surgery yesterday. We were at the hospital for 4 hours. Keith had his right eye done - Kristina had both eyes done. It makes sense that Keith is recovering easier than Kristina. The pain meds (tylenol) don't seem to help a lot and they both HATE the gel we have to put in their eyes just before bed. I hope that it will be worth it - and that this procedure will help their eyes. In other news, Kristina starts school tomorrow. She is beyond excited. :o)

Whining
Well, Keith has officially entered toddlerhood. He whines constantly - I wish I were kidding - about everything. Usually he is wanting to eat...even after he just ate, he still whines about wanting to eat and is completely impatient about waiting for the food to arrive. Currently Tyler is warming up some pasta for Keith and he is shrieking to the top of his lungs for something to eat while signing "eat" over and over. His therapists say that he is in the realm of toddlerhood and will continue to progress. I hope that whining goes away soon - but with already having another child, I know that won't happen.
I had a tonsillectomy this past monday, therefore I have been missing in action this whole week. My sweet husband has been picking up all the slack and has been caring for our family and for me. He has assured me that he never wants to be a single parent - EVER! It's hard and we're struggling hour-to-hour. Tyler has taken some time off work, which has made this week possible.
Kristina starts school next week - she watches Anna get on the bus in the mornings and asks when it's her turn. Poor girl. 2 days ago Kristina was "skating" around the kitchen and fell into the wall - putting a big knot on her forehead that split. Without a doubt, Kristina will be my clumsy child. She falls down a great deal and is always needing bandaids and kisses from this or that. I hope that her coordination will improve with time.

It's been a while
since I posted some pictures of my adorable children. Here's your eye candy for today:
My son taking a mid-day nap - let's hope it won't affect him going to bed tonight!!!

We are signed up with www.netflix.com and realized that many of their movies and tv shows can be watched instantly via internet. Kristina & Anna have been on a spongebob squarepants binge all day long.

Interesting situation
So a year and a half ago, we weren't even thinking about adoption. Then we felt God inspire us to do pursue adoption, and we did. He blessed us throughout the whole process and still blesses us to this day with our children. Now we have desires to adopt again, but after much prayer and meditation, we feel that now is not the right time. Or, at least, God wants us to wait. This makes sense since we are moving within the next 6 months. I hope, and pray, that another adoption is in God's plan for us in the future. We would love to bring more children into our family through international adoption again.
