Following Foughts

Let's take it back to October 2013.  Well, really, before that, but we will start there! We officially became a waiting family and made it official by announcing on Facebook!  I mean, how else do you make things official? Now, realistically, I knew it could be a long wait...I mean, I've seen Dateline! That is what adoption is, right? Sign some paperwork, wait for a bit and then BOOM!, you get chosen and you get a baby! Easy Peasy!  Ok, so I was wrong...very, very, wrong! I grew up in small town Nebraska and my husband grew up in one of the two "big cities" Nebraska has.  We are somewhat sheltered! My best friend growing up had a brother who was adopted at birth...but shhhh...you didn't talk about it! A couple years prior to us talking adoption, one of my best friends adopted a little girl.  They worked with an agency, they got a call and a few months later they had a baby! I thought to myself, "well, this can't be that hard.  That seems pretty easy

Ok, so let me start this off with no one is paying me! I bought my own box and this is my honest opinion! Cooking is something I enjoy....I don’t love it, but I enjoy it.  I LOVE baking! Let me tell you why I don’t LOVE cooking! Because I have a family! And said family is picky! I mean, I’m picky...but I figure if I’m cooking, I can cook stuff I like! I don’t eat seafood, my husband doesn’t eat red meat and my three year old just doesn’t eat! My one year old eats about anything, though, so that's a win! Anyway, a couple months ago my husbands’ Aunt said she had done Hello Fresh and had a free week to give away and asked if we would like to try it!  I had been looking at different meal delivery options but never committed. So I figured a free sample would be a great start! So I signed up, picked my meals and a few days later I get the meals! Pretty good and tasty!  But would I do it again if I had to pay for it....not sure! I kept my account active and just delayed the shipments

HI! Let me first introduce myself and the rest of my family!  My name is Jami ( hi, Jami ). I am married to Greg, a pediatric dentist.  Mother to Tre', 22, (an airline employee), Taylen, almost 19, (a college student), Kyson, 3, (a very active toddler), and Emi, 1, (another very active toddler)! We live in the great state of Nebraska...home of Husker football, Fairbury Hot dogs, and that is pretty much it! I know nothing about football and rarely eat a hot dog...unless it's at a football game.                                            The above pictures is our family before Emi blessed us!                                            My world! There are many reason I have felt compelled to start a blog, the main one being adoption!  I think adoption is so important but yet feel there is so much to be learned and hopefully changed to make adoption much easier, less expensive and a much more pleasant experience.  More on that later.  The second reason I wanted to start a
