Our welcoming party. |
How sweet are they? Well, everyone in this photo is waiting for their future children too. No joke. Two families waiting on referrals from Ethiopia and one with a referral already from Haiti :o) |
Our Chinese Princess meets our Grasmatch Ethiopian son. |
This would be the moment Corey (in the hat) and Habtamu "meet" for the first time. Starring contest?? |
Hum...wonder what's going though his mind right about now? |
Thank you for making him feel welcome (and by welcome, I'm sure I mean a little shell shocked :o) |
Well, I guess the "boys will be boys" thing is starting at home. |
He learned to ride a bike in 10 minutes and within two hours, he was off and rode like he's been riding forever. He was not putting that bike away until he figured it out either. |
And he's off..... |
Our 5 kiddo's. Wow...did I just write that I have 5 kiddo's? |
The 5 of us...and the 6 of them couldn't fit into one vehicle, so we split them up according to gender. That's the only way to make it fair, right? |
Hey Emily Anderson....the girl in the green says to tell you "HI!" |
Our fun friends :o) who live in a fun city! |
Yea, we walked a little. Yea, we were tired. But it was so worth it! |
This would be at the WWII Memorial. It's breathtaking. |
Happy Anniversary, sweetie! This will be an anniversary I'll never forget :o) |
Today we went to a fun center for bouncing and swimming. Habtamu loved it (as did the rest of the kiddo's). |
Ahhh...much cooler now. |
First time down a water slide (well, we're pretty sure it's his first time). |
Is he waving? Yea, I think he is. And Jared apparently won the race down. |
Hold your breath...here we go! |
Wow...that was fast! |
Gotta love dad's face on this one. |
Tired and worn out...NOT! |
Parents of 5 kids...so far so good! |
