What's Been Happening.......

We've been busy as usual this Feburay! Here's what's been going on:

We had a really fun Valentine's weekend with friends! Connor also had a fun Valentine's weekend with friends. Michelle was brave enough to keep him, Atley, and Ava for a few days, while the Watsons and us escaped to Kentucky and met up with the Haneys and Belows for a little getaway.

Connor had his five year check-up and failed three hearing tests, so we had to see an audiologist. He passed all hearing tests at the audiologist, but failed the articulation test. So, after filling out five million pieces of paper, we should be hearing something in the next week about him beginning a speech therapy program. He is going through an early intervention program that Knox County Schools has set up, so it's free, which is a HUGE blessing! Hopefully, he'll make progress before beginning Kindergarten in the fall!

Connor has also started gymnastics, which he absolutely loves! Every Tuesday he comes running out of class screaming, "I DID AWESOME!" He's quite the little monkey! He'll begin swimming lessons soon as well! He still wants to continue with soccer in the fall, but is content to do these things in the meantime.

The three of us also joined a Fitness Center. We're trying to get healthier! I haven't been able to run in forever because of some leg problems, and pounding asphalt is really painful, but I've found some different cardio machines at the gym that are working for me. Connor has had a blast in the pool, hot tub, and on the rock climbing wall! I think Connor and I are more excited about it than Greg, but he is graciously coming along for the ride!

After a lot of prayer, I have decided to give up Thirty-One because there are just not enough hours in my day! I had a great Fall with sales, made some great money towards the adoption, but at this point in time, just don't know how to balance it all! I am also praying about going back to school for my Ed.S right now. I have no idea what the right thing to do is, but I feel like it would be easier to do it now than when Claire gets here. I'm continuing to pray and won't make any decisions until I get I get more discernment.

I think Greg is the only normal one around here. I don't think he needs therapy or is giving up a side job or anything! He's our rock and our drama free family member!

We are excited to head to Disney in just two weeks! The three of us are ready to get out of K-town for a while! Our annual Disney trip is always the highlight of our year! I can't tell if Connor is looking forward to his first plane ride more or Disney!

Well, that's what's been going on in the month of February! Just a normal, crazy, month here for the Adkins family!
