It has been an incredibly busy past several months.  I asked Stacey to marry me on April 5th, and we got married on August 30th.  So, all 4 of us have been going through quite the transition!  The kids love the house and Stacey and I are pretty content with it as well.  There’s still lots of unpacking to do and a little painting left, but other than that it’s looking good!

Stacey and I went to the Dominican Republic for a week for our honeymoon and it was beautiful and tons of fun!  I will do my best to upload pictures soon.

One of the biggest things I’ve been working on is patience with the kids and life in general.  I found myself snapping a lot more than I should have and I’ve tried very hard to have patience with them.

That’s my update for now.  I hope to pick up with more updates soon!

Last Saturday, Carson met his Biological Dad (BD) for the first time.  It was a tense moment for all.  Stacey and I are naturally very protective of the little guy, so we were nervous.  I wasn’t right there with them when they met, but I was nearby.

It went very well.  Carson may actually go with his BD for a couple of hours on Sunday.  It’s hard for me to let go because I’ve pretty much been daddy to him for the 8+ months of his life.  But, he needs his BD in his life, and as long as his BD takes good care of him, I’m ok.  I love Carson and he knows it.

Although it was yesterday, I still wanted to post about my Valentine’s Day.  I thought it was important for me to make it special for the 5yr old girl in my life.  I let her choose where we ate, I gave her a card, and I told her that I loved her.  She was in heaven!  I tell her that I love her everyday, but Valentine’s Day is just an excuse to spoil the significant others in your life.

Now, tonight is mommy and I time.  I already got her 2 dozen roses and I’m taking her to a nice place to eat tonight.  It’s our first Valentine’s together.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone.
