All about Bryan







Bryan is my first born. He is the child that made me a mom. As my first born he will always have a special place in my heart. Bryan is the kindest, most gentle and helpful person you will ever meet. He loves to help others and is always the first to notice when someone needs help. He has a heart for the Lord and is a real sweetheart. I am very lucky to have such a great teenage boy! These are some of my favorite pictures from the last year. As you can see he is also a great big brother.

It's time...

to introduce each of my kids. I will start with our oldest Bryan and end with our youngest Alenna.

We have PA!

Finally after 7 weeks of waiting we have pre-approval from China to adopt our precious girl. I know that I didn't have anything to worry about, we didn't have any reason for China to reject us, but I still worried. A lot! It is like a huge burden off my shoulders to hear that we have been approved. I don't know why I worry so much about these things, but I know that for the last week and a half I have been hard to live with. But now I feel like the sun has come out and life can go on.

Pictures of Arianna




Here are some of the few pictures we have of our daughter. We hope to get more soon, but until then I will just have to admire the few I have. I love how she looks like she has so much personality. I think that she is going to be alot of fun. I can hardly wait!!!!

First Snow






Last night we had a beautiful snowfall, so today Alenna got to go outside and play in the snow. She really wasn't sure what to think of it. But, I think in the end she liked it ok.
