He's a BIG boy!

We received another email this morning with an update and pictures. The update wasn't as detailed as we would have liked, but the pictures.... WOW. He's 14 months old in the pictures and he looks like he is in at least 2T.




We would like to wish everyone a Healthy and Happy New Year.

We got the call.

We are in shock right now, I mean we knew we were getting the call, we just thought we had two more months. It's all good. The travel is set and we'll be arriving home with our son Anthony on 1/21. Of course you'll all be able to come along with us because we'll be posting video links on You Tube and Facebook.
Thanks for all the congrats and well wishes. WE ARE PUMPED!
Last time we went it was June so it will be a whole different packing experience. The temp. in Korea today was 14 degrees.
We also are trying to set up a meeting with James' wonderful foster family while we are there. They are going to be so happy to see him.
If your wondering its a 14 1/2 hour flight nonstop.

Electric Bill

I usually hang up on telemarketers but a couple of months ago I was in a good mood and took a call from Viridian Energy. They are an electric supplier. I never paid much attention to my electricity bill..... I just pay it.
After talking to Viridian and letting them talk me into switching over to them from UI I have saved $21 the first month and $18 the second month. The best part is it's all on the same bill and I'm still writing one check to UI. It's basically a different Generation service charge on your bill and its in black and white.
UI charged .124228 per kwh and Viridian charged .0979 per kwh so if you used 800 kwh of electricity you would save $21.06 per month. Like Dad always says "That money is better in my pocket than theirs."
If you have UI the Generation charges are under the new charges and credits column. I'm sure the same goes for Connecticut Light & Power. Do the math.
