great Eva news

Goodness things have been crazy around the Beckcom house, Evan is growing up so fast and every time I look at him my heart breaks. Today we went ice skating grrrr forgot the camera although I am sure the pics would be no good. Him and I standing in the same spot for 30 min. falling over each other hmmmm still made for a good afternoon.
I had an interview today YEAH I am excited about it, something to do while I am finishing my masters who knows :) It went really well and it is close i.e. NOT TULSA OK god almighty how did I ever drive 2 hours to and from work each day for 2 years??? I look back on it now and even though I loved the job, never seeing my family, dropping 40 lbs, and working 60+ hrs a week nearly killed me.
The adoption front it AMAZING I am sooo excited about the news I have, I called the agency yesterday and they said our wait time was only 6-9 mo. AHHHHHHH I cannot believe that Eva could be here by Christmas, most likely not because I am lagging on some paper work but it COULD happen! If I get this job then she will for sure be home by Christmas. We are also considering more moderate special needs kids, there are just so many kids available that need mommies that arent "perfect" in the eyes of others. I cannot do a child with a severe handicap or mental handicap, however we are looking into Downs and the more I read, the more I am open to the idea. We shall see I know when I see her I will know and that is all that matters.
Last week we went to Colorado for a week fun times, toured a few breweries, saw a friend, ate some AMAZING sushi flown in fresh that morning from Japan best sushi EVER got some great vintage outfits, and enjoyed getting away. We got to stay at Ethan's uncles cabin which is amazing right out side of Boulder we are for sure going to have to make another trip with the family to that place.

I guess that is about all, I know I have been a bad blogger lately but it seems as though I have no time? Being a mommy is a hard job and I am always so tired I just don't know what to do with myself :) Hope all is well bloggers!

never ending

Hello all in never never land, since it seems like forever until Eva gets here I am loosing my mind. Great things are happening though for instance tomorrow I leave for my pre vacation vacation....yeah I know I am weird but it really is. We are going to Colorado to mess around and prepare for our trip to Peru this summer, since I am not ready to climb Machu Picchu we are going to Co. to get ready :) Ok ok that is just an excuse to make it ok for me to be taking to many vacations so close together but what the heck whatever gets me through the night right.

We leave in 5 hours and I cannot sleep and we are driving so I shouldnt be here but I am and since my update is 4 months behind I reallly needed to do this. The schedule consist of 5 breweries, the Denver mint, a few amazing restaurants, an hour massage already booked ;), a few hikes, a trip to my uncle in laws cabin, maybe some skiing, and of course shopping! I am very much ready for a vacation, it was after our last vacaton the life took a slow climb downwards so I am hoping that after this vacation it will start back upwards.

We are atleast a year away from getting Eva and her room is looking more and more like a girl tot's princess haven! I have he cutest bedding and am trying to make her a tutu bed skirt but the key word it trying :) Evan is ready as well he is growing like a weed it makes me so sad, he never cuddles with me anymore and is always trying crazy stunts. I swear he says the smartest things, he saw and evangelical (sp) church the other day and shouts out "that spells me" it was so funny but even more smart! I love that kiddo, he is starting soccer this summer so I will be an official "soccer mom" but not in so many words. He is already so darn good, but I must admit the main attraction for soccer is the energy it takes because mommy needs a little break from the all day go go go. I could work out all day long and still have more energy then I do after a day with him. Anywho I better hit the sack for the 12 hour drive tomorrow ughhh the only bad part about this vacation is the drive :) I will try and update you guys more on my life, until then goodnight all!
