Walk Away the Pounds!

Tatiana and Diego have joined their Mami in walking away the pounds! I can proudly say I've put in the DVD twice this week!!! Tatiana walks along with me. Diego is so funny! He is swaying when we do the side steps. I began using weights the second day we walked, and the children picked up coasters and modeled Mami's movements. It was a fun site to see- wish I had a photo to share! Andrew usually sits on the couch and cheers us on...they are really precious!

Getting ready for Diego's 3rd birthday. Decided we would not do a theme necessarily, but hot dogs and cake! He has already found some of his presents in our closet! I tried playing a game with him this morning to distract him from the huge yellow dump truck Ben got him, but he had already eyed it! So, when he was eventually distracted and left our bedroom, I put it in our closet...Diego is so smart, though...he came, found me getting ready for work, and was so smooth---just went in there took that truck off the shelf and started checking it out!!! How fun! He was so cute...well, I wrapped all the presents tonight! The party won't be until next weekend, the 6th.

Ben's parents gave the children a swingset. The children love it. Andrew saw it for the first time and yelled, "Colombia!" I assume because it brought back memories of when we stayed at the Refugio where the children were able to play outside on a swingset.

We have our first post placement report today. I will contact the adoption agency tomorrow to verify what other forms are needed to go with it and send it off this week! Yeah!

Well, that's all for tonight...thanks for listening!
