Energy level = up and down!

We have had a busy week.

Our energy level went up because we were informed of our first foster placement yesterday morning! Our energy level is down because I went nuts and cleaned the house and Brian had a 5 hour interview.

Without further ado:

Here are some pumpkin roll eyeballs:

Here is Anna’s bedroom reorganized!


And I’m wondering why I got them to nap was so easily!

I’m going to stop using real names on this blog. I am Mama, he is Papa, She is Sweety, and foster girl is Cutiepie. 🙂

P.s.
For privacy, we won’t be posting pictures of Cutiepie on the blog. We also need to keep her story private, since it is her story and not ours. Thanks for understanding!

    Congrats on the foster placement. I understand your not being able to show pictures of cutiepie, but I’m sad! Can you say how things are going with her there? Between her and Anna? Anna’s room looks great by the way!

    Yup I agree…can you say how things are going? How Sweety and Cutiepie are getting along? How Mama & Papa are doing? How your two catish animals are doing?
    🙂
    Hope it’s all well!

    Catest animal is doing badly. We’ve locked her outside. Anybody want a cat?
    Less catty animal is doing well.
    Mama and Papa are doing amazingly well, because…
    Sweety is doing good and so is Cutiepie! Cutiepie is an easy kid to have around and hasn’t cried once yet. I’m betting she’ll be a handful once she stays somewhere long enough to develop some attachment, but we’re getting the easy week(s).
    Sweetie has gotten pretty possessive and clingy – she is not used to sharing space or Mama or Papa. She is doing better than expected.

  4. I understand wanting to be “private”, but wouldn’t that mean you would have to go back through your blog and change all the names… just trying to help out here.

    Yeah… who are we hiding stuff from? It will be hard to not use names. But we will try if you want.

    Brian could go back and change the names pretty easily (helps to have a computer wiz for a hubby) but I don’t know if we need to do that. We have this blog up, including pictures, for our family and friends. We considered making it password protected. The blog is open to the public for now, however, although we try to keep our “web footprint” small (don’t know if I’m using that term right) by not linking to this blog from many places.

    Basically, we just want to reduce the amount of identifying information on this blog about us so that the random scary person will know less about us. This is a public domain and we’re just keeping personal stuff to ourselves. Whatever.

    Whatever. Psh. 😉 You tell ‘m girlfriend. Uh-uh, no you di’n’t. *Snap, Snap, Snap*
    Heehee.
    I’m sorry the cattiest of your animals isn’t adjusting well. And that’s GREAT that Cutiepie isn’t crying. keep us informed as you have time, or after it’s all over. Either/or.

    I’m sitting in a dark house, because Papa is sitting between the two beds in the girls room trying to “help” the girls to sleep. The lights are off, because they’ll hopefully fall asleep faster with it dark. The door’s open so that Papa can make a speedy and quiet getaway. He’s between the beds, because Anna’s an escapee. She opened the bedroom door twice tonight and just isn’t into goin’ to bed.
    Cutiepie has a cold and coughed for a good 20 minutes after laying down, poor thing. I’m really hoping that we’ll all get our sleep tonight.
    I’ve been wanting adult time this weekend, so I’m really impatient for Papa to come out here! We’re going to make popcorn and watch a movie. I think it’s some sci-fi something or other.
    It’s been interesting having two kids in diapers, but that hasn’t been too bad. I mean, what’s another diaper? It’s been more interesting to see Sweetie’s reaction to having to share her space… can you say possessive? She went and took Cutiepie’s blankie and teddy and bed earlier tonight.

    You said “Sweetie”‘s real name 😀
    Not to be annoying, and I know you said it doesn’t matter and all that, but I thought I’d let you know seeing how you’ve made the effort and all.
    Also, you said Brian in the original blog.
    Was it one of those “starting…NOW” things?
    Ha.
    Enjoy the double diapers.
    I sure wouldn’t!
