| This has been an exhausting month. Here is a recap on some of what has been going on in our family Celebrating Leiney Grace's 10th Birthday  |
| Last year for her birthday breakfast, Leiney Grace chose dumplings and mandarin oranges - she had been home less than 2 months. A lot has changed since then : ) |
 |
 |
 |
| Leiney Grace chose Rapunzel to be on her cake for her princess party. I think she enjoyed herself. |
 |
| Leiney Grace really wanted an American Girl doll for her birthday. She chose Julie and was delighted to open her big surprise! |
 |
| 3 little princesses and one tired Mama. |
 |
| Some of us got lots of rest this month. Others not.so.much! |
Katie loves to participate in our community theater. "Grease" was the word around here for quite some time as she had practice, practice and then rehearsal, rehearsal, and more rehearsal. It was all worth it when we watched it all unfold on stage a week and a half ago.

| Fulton has wanted a gun for a few years. His mama has been strongly opposed to this idea. Well, David got his first gun at 12 years of age so guess who got a gun for his 12th birthday? |
 They were both happy : ) |
 Then we celebrated at our house with 8 of Fulton's friends. Fishing, football, target shooting, and lots of food. They had a great time, and David and I survived. Last but not least, we have spent lots of time preparing for little Dawson. His and Hudson's room is ready - well the crib still has to be put up - let me add that onto the long "to-do list" that just keeps going - insert big sigh. |

| My 2 little boys - can't wait 'til they are both here! Our Article 5 has been picked up so now we are only waiting on TA. It can't get here quick enough! Still travelling alone and have as much peace as I think I will have. |
Oh, how I love to see all the pictures of the family and your descriptions! love, Rebecca
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun, tiring April! Looking forward to May;)!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing your updates and can not wait till the day you call and I answer the phone and you yell "WE GOT TA!!!" I think we have done that with each other for every one of our adopted children except Brinley.
ReplyDeleteLoved having your littles down at the pond! Hope you'll all come out and play soon!
Love ya!
You may not remember, but we met in China last February - we were the family adopting three at one time. I found your blog (a link shared by Sharon) and have been keeping up with your journey to Dawson. He is such an adorable little boy - am so happy for you and your family. Prayers for a quick TA.
