September is Almost Over?

I can't believe how fast this month has gone. Emma is growing up and becoming more mobile. She finally started to walk on her own on September 14th and has just been getting better and better. With this new ability it has brought new adventures. She was climbing on things before but now she is able to explore more things to climb on and wont sit in the stroller or the grocery cart anymore she would rather walk. I guess that is because she can find more things to get into. She now has found my keyboard in the living room and has figured out that when you turn it on it makes noise. Then if you push some buttons it will play songs. Then of course she has to sing with it. It is so funny to watch her play it and actually only hit one or two keys at a time and not bang her hand on it. We are just letting her continue to play it and maybe we might have a musician in the family, who knows.



The other thing that we have been working really hard at this month is trying to get all the paperwork done so that we can adopt again. We had it done by September 1st but then we had other requirements that came up such as getting a letter from the 911office of every place we have lived in the past 5 years showing if we had any 911 calls and then get the transcripts. We didn't have any calls but getting a letter saying that was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. We also have been waiting for the LDS Family Services to get our FBI checks back showing that we are not criminals. It was suppose to take a month, but it took about 7 weeks and that finally came in today. Now we have our home visit scheduled in a couple of weeks and then we will be on the list again. So if any of you here of a child that needs a home, we are willing and ready for them.
