New Pics and Great News

We had another couple that is adopting from Ethiopia graciously take pictures for us last week of him.  He is the sweetest thing.  Jennifer, the girl that took the pics, said that he is a "kind spirited little boy."  She said he is crawling and sits up on his own (almost).  She says he smiles all the time and is very curious about what everyone else is doing all the time.  His pictures look SO different. They do grow SO fast. His hair is grown out a bit.  It makes you realize how much you miss when they are little.  She said though that he is so loved there in his orphanage not only by the caretakers, but by the older kids in the orphanage and the future parents that come to visit the orphanage.

On another note, we received some great news about Kendal today.  In the midst of all of our adoption excitement, we have been worried that Kendal could have something serious.  We were referred to a pediatric surgeon and had the appt. this morning.  She has, "benign active lymph nodes" and they are not to worry about at all unless they get larger.  So, we are not only blessed with great news about our little boy but our little girl as well.  They are both angels and we are so incredibly blessed that they are both happy and healthy.  Praise, praise God.

That's AWESOME news!!! I have a couple of friends (and former soccer players AGH! I'm getting old) who just had kids, and I love looking at the pictures of seeing these little ones growing up. I can only imagine what it must be like for you guys. But only 1 more month!!!!!
