This post is way overdue so I apologize for not getting it up sooner.

Leah is much better. Praise the Lord that our prayers were answered. Thank you all very much for your prayers, thoughts, and letter. While we still aren't sure what exactly is causing the pneumonia she is much better now. They're going to run a few tests over the next few weeks so pray that they find nothing serious but that we do find out the cause of the problem. One potential problem is up on craiglist. 2 wonderful cats. We lover our cats very dearly and would love to keep them but if they are causing Leah trouble we need to get rid of them. If you would be interested in providing a good home for them please let us know. They do need to be kept inside and are on a diet of only dry food and water. They are very low maintenance and very kid friendly. If you are interested or know anyone else who would be we are desperately seeking a good home for them.

Nothing much new on the adoption front. Our agency is working hard on the new requirements and we'll see how they do. There are several court cases between now and ours, including at least one tomorrow so hopefully it will be smooth sailing for us. Waiting is so hard right now. There are times that I will go almost a day and it not cross my mind much and then there are days where he is all I think about and we can't wait to hold him. Only 38 days until our next court date.

Christmas is only 2 weeks away. Both of our families have cut back some on the gifts we are exchangin and to be totally honest it is big blessing. Christmas shopping was way simplified this year and we haven't been going 90 mph this year.

We have some ice/snow/sleet today. Nothing much at all but definitely can get you in the Christmas spirit.
