I'm Not A Baby!

Happy fall y'all!

I CAN'T wrap my mind around the fact that it's already September! School is back in full swing and the weather is cooling down...(sometimes, mostly on the days my kids have their kiddie pool set up and ready to go!) Anyway, I've always looked at fall as the season of change, in Utah at least to me, it seems like it's the time of year with the most changes! We're going through changes and awaiting to see if there will be more as time goes on.

We have been foster free for about 6-8 weeks but that could change any day. We're going to give it another shot with some younger kids (if they call us!!) And see if we can turn fostering into adopting, that's the hope.

Our kiddos are getting way too big, and the problem is, they know it. Until lately, I've been pretending Emerson was still my baby but she won't accept that anymore... Emerson is so firey! If it's not her idea it's a bad idea in her mind. Tanner was cuddling her the other day and told her that's how he held her when she was tiny and she says "well I'm not a baby!" And Tanner said your my baby and she says "no I'm not a baby and I'm not tiny!" Rude! So we're in a baby free phase for the first time in four years and I don't know what to do, let's be clear it's lots easier! But it's weird!

AND Tanner has been applying and interviewing for work promotions so depending on how that plays out, we could have big work changes too.

I use to be afraid of change, I'm not saying I love it now, but I'm starting to see that it keeps life exciting and makes me rely on Faith and our Savior all the more! I must say, I usually have a plan, but I have no clue what the next couple months has in store for us! It's nuts! I'm excited to see where it goes! For now I'm trying to keep things steady in the ways I'm able to, and buckle up for life's unpredictable changes ahead!

I'll keep ya posted! Until then, I'm practicing my sewing skills, I've had lots of fun with it! My favorite blog right now is:
