By July 2006 the wait time from LID (log in date) to referral had gone to 13 months. It was very difficult to except that during the four months we had been logged in, the wait had gone up by 5 months. It felt like our journey towards adoption was moving backwards. Thankfully, July was a busy month for us and I didn't have too much time to sit around and be heartbroken over something I had no control over. 
We just continued to wait and pray for our little girl. Cori and I took the kids up to Flagstaff to get away from the heat. It was such a nice getaway. The kids had so much fun playing together. We drove up to the ski resort o
ne day and took a chair lift ride to the top of the mountain.Jacob's favorite thing to do while we were there was to go to the skate park. By the time we left he was almost a pro skater. Benjamin had fun too, expect for the nightly thunder storms that would roll in. He could have done without that. But, all and all it was a wonderful trip.
The only thing missing was our sugarplum. We can't wait to have her with us on our trips! Saramarie can't wait either! She's all done being the only girl in the family (or so she thinks!!)!

That was a great trip. I can't wait to take the baby there. Mary and I loved the sky ride to the top of the mountain in Flagstaff, but the kids wanted to go down because they were cold and it was windy. It will be fun when we can plan a trip for the kids and their new cousin.
