Finally

After 16 months, Kalia's family has finally been approved to travel to China to make her a part of their family.  She will join her 6 others siblings (three who joined the family by way of China).   Her family has stepped out in faith to bring her home, but is a little short on the funds needed to do that.   They hope to leave at the end of next week or the following week.
Her family is having a great raffle on their blog where you can win an I-Pad.   Check out their blog and Kalia's story here.

Two Years Ago

Two years ago we walked into the Civil Affairs office in Nanjing and held our beautiful girl for the first time.  After 6 months of staring at her picture, we finally met in person.   It  seems like it was just yesterday and forever ago at the same time.

Sunday Snapshot: Two Princesses

Taylor and Ella got to attend a performance of Disney Princesses on Ice.  They were so excited.  Taylor especially loved the Rapunzel section.

Sunday Snapshot: Happy 9th Birthday, Jordan

Wow!  It is hard to believe that my baby is already 9.  It really doesn't seem that long ago that I was in Hershey Med recovering from his delivery.  Enjoy these pictures of Jordan as he has grown.

Sunday Snapshot: Saturday of Fun

Yesterday we went to a parade, picked apples, and celebrated Taylor's 4th and Jordan's 9th birthdays with a Phineas and Ferb birthday party.  We had a great time.

Taylor was so excited to get her Dora suitcase.  She only asked for two things-a Dora suitcase and girl Legos.  Grandma and Grandpa came through with both.
