Counseling

I am going to start counseling for myself as well as a couple with Jon. We have been attending an Infant Loss Support Group that meets once a month but I have decided I would like more one on one time with a counselor and Jon and I also decided that we would do some couple counseling focusing on working through each others grief together. I don't imagine this will be easy but I do feel it a necessary step in our grieving process.

June Activities!

Today is story time at the Springfield Public Library and it is every Wednesday. Then next Tuesday we are starting Kindermusik which June adored the trial class we did so I think she is going to really enjoy it. It last for 15 weeks and covers string instruments. It is a mommy and me class so it should be exciting!

Well I am volunteering now.....

I was e-mailing the director of the Lane County Heart Gallery about some kids that are listed on there website and mentioned that I stay home and she said that they could use some help on the newsletter that goes out bi-monthly. I said I could easily help since I can do it at home. So this morning I went and filled out the volunteer application and confidentiality form and got the document to put into there newsletter program. I am super excited to start this!

Painting......

So painting is going well and we will probably be done tonight with it. WOOT! I am so glad to be one step closer to being out of this apartment and into our home. I'm so excited to move and hang up pictures! I plan on having a dinner for everyone when we are settled!

Ode to My In-Laws!

My in-laws were very obvious in the distaste of me with Jon in the beginning of our relationship even when we first got married nearly four years ago. Though over the last four years out relationship has improved dramatically. I am so thrilled that my father-in-law Jim is making a bunk bed w/trundle for us. You know how cool it is going to be to have a homemade bed by Grandpa! For June and our adoptive kids. He also made June a functional wooden high chair for her "babies" and it is gorgeous! My mother-in-law Novena makes June a whole bunch of skirts and toys and has even start making felt foods, tonight we got some felt potato chips, lol. I am so lucky to have them as my in-laws even if we don't agree on some stuff they aren't that judgmental and are open to learning about why we do stuff which means a lot.

We get the keys @ 10:30!

We get to pick up our keys @ 10:30! I am so ready to be out of this apartment!

I need all of your help with this and yes

we are technically cheating but oh well. One of my best friends is a budding musician and attends UO school of Music. Well he wants to play a show at the WOW Hall here in Eugene but he needs votes. So that is where you all come in. All you have to do is email eugenechosen@yahoo.com and in the body write "I vote for Stephan Nance" The person with the most votes wins a free gig there and this would be awesome! I would really appreciate it if you all would help. And there is no spam just an auto response saying your vote has been counted.

you can view it all @ eugenechosen.com

Thanks guys!
