Beautiful Day!

We have been so blessed by amazing weather today. My good friend S came over today to take some 6 month pictures of Aaron. It was so nice we ended up going outside to enjoy the afternoon and take some pictures. It is hard to believe that Thanksgiving is next week and we were outside today with no coats on. Here is a sneak peak of the pictures that S took today of Aaron.

 

 

 

 

Orphan Sunday

Waiting....waiting....waiting

For the past three years Jack and I have been in the process of adopting a baby from Ethiopia....for the past year our paperwork has been in Ethiopia and we have been on hold...for the past 5 months we have been waiting to go off of hold so that we would be eligible to receive a referral of a baby...we called our agency today to see if we could go off hold this month since our file expires in May...we were told we need to wait until next month....and so are waiting again....

4 months!

Our little stud man (as he is affectionately called by his Daddy) is already 4 months old. He has been changing so much in the last couple of weeks. He has several new tricks including the ability to roll over, blow bubbles, chew on his toes (we have a very flexible son), and pet our dog, Charly. Our sweet baby boy brings so much joy to us. Two nights ago I was holding him and walking up the stairs after baby time. Daddy was following us and when Aaron saw his Daddy he would laugh and laugh and laugh. There is nothing that brings more joy to our hearts than to hear Aaron laugh in sheer delight.
