We are approx., 2-3 weeks from receiving our foster parents licensed, with the hopes of adopting. So, on Friday, I was surprised to get a call that there are 2 children, who would be perfect for us and will be adopt eligible in July. So, since our background checks are in . .we can take them "to test the waters" for up to 48 hours at a time. So, we have 2 extra kids this weekend . .2 yo girl and 4 yo boy - they are adorable - but oh, was the house BUSY BUSY!!!

Needless to say, I got little done this weekend so some of my lists repeat!
