Wow!  It's been a looong time since I've blogged!  There has been a lot going on in the Anderson household over the past 7-8 months.  Most notably--Baby Boy Anderson #3 is on the way!  We found out (surprise!) in May that we would be adding to our family.  And, of course, he's another little boy.  I am due January 16th, 2013, with a c-section scheduled for the week beforehand.  We'll see if we make it that long!

Alex is now 4 and a half and growing and changing everyday.  He played soccer this Fall for the first time and LOVED it!  He ran hard at every practice and game.  He became quite the little goalie and wasn't afraid to throw himself on the ground for every save.  He is going to 3Cs Nursery School again this year.  He has Mrs. Unger for a teacher and is thriving.  Lots of his little buds from last year are in class with him again, which is so great.  Alex is learning how to write.  He fills notebooks with letters, numbers, drawings, etc.  He loves to write lists, game plans, etc.  He has also discovered legos, and builds some pretty cool cars, airplanes, "jungle trucks" and fire trucks with them.  He is also continuing with piano lessons and is learning so much. 

Noah is 2 and a half and such a fun little guy.  He is a mover and shaker.  He always wants to be on the go and doing something.  He has started dance class this year.  After a few shy months of not dancing in class (but doing everything at home) he has finally opened up.  He gets to have a few short minutes of piano instruction before Alex's lesson starts, and he loves it!  Noah is still being followed by the team at Cincinnati Children's Cardiology.  His heart is holding steady, for the most part, and he is healthy!

We are still pursuing foster care.  We took a break from the extensive licensure process when we got the news of this pregnancy.  We are *this* close to being done with all of the paperwork (finally!) and will hopefully be licensed by the beginning of 2013.  I can't even begin to imagine what's in store for us on this journey, but I am trusting that God has His hand in it!
