Whoo hoo

Ken's family found him! Whoot whoot!  I am so excited.  You know this is the same way we found Jax. Someone advocated for him, we inquired..and then 10 months later he is home!!!


 I have a ton of catching up to do as we just got home from a 9 day vacation to the beach. I have awesome pics and we had so much fun relaxing and enjoying life together. I will blog about it soon.  

Praising God again for all His mighty works!!!

How cute is he???

Ok here is another ADORABLE little boy with VERY minor special needs (already corrected). He is only 3.5 years old and cute as a button. Believe me I am going to be praying for God to tug on my hubby's heart strings. This little one needs a family! Will you pray one comes forward for him?  please contact me sh0ptildr@aol.com or xqcai@comcast.net for more information on darling Ken.

For Esmerelda

Esmerelda thanks for getting in touch with me via my comments. I don't have your email so here is mine.
sh0ptildr@aol.com  I would love to see the picture you have of Jax.

Thanks

Sweet 4 year old needs a family.

Has God been tugging at your heart? Do you want to adopt but don't know who, how or when? Are you in the process and just waiting on the Lord to direct you to your new child? Maybe you haven't even started the process but you want to.
 How about sweet Gang Gang.   He is from Chengdu which is the same orphanage as Jax and Sophie.  In fact Jax recognized him when he saw these pictures.

Gang Gang has a repaired cleft lip and palate and will be 5 this Oct 11. He is in the Half the Sky foundation's little sister program.  Please prayerfully consider adding this little one to your family or please pray that a family will come forward for him.
 He is also on the individual list of the same agency we worked with, BAAS.  They are awesome and will help you bring him home as soon as possible. Their SN coordinator is very nice to work with and seems to answer your emails 24/7.  Please contact me for more info at sh0ptildr@aol.com, I would be happy to help you anyway I can.

A little more info:

He has normal motor
development. He runs and jumps freely and he is nimble
and quick to react. In terms of his language ability, he
understand what is said to him and he can accurately express
himself. Because he is postoperative cleft lip and palate, the
pronunciation of some words are not completely accurate but
it has no effect on the communication.

Gang Gang is very self-sufficient. He feeds and dresses
himself, goes potty on his own and cooperate when taking a
shower. He is very capable. He makes his bed every morning.
Before going to bed at night, he helps to put the shoes of
other children in order. Gang Gang is studying in the program
provided by the CWI. He is bright, lively and loves to play with
other children.He likes to eat sweets and fruit. He is not a
picky eater He likes to watch T. V. especially watch cartoons.

Love this boy!!

K5

Sophie had her first day at K5 yesterday and told me she didn't like her teacher she LOVED her!! lol. She came home very bubbly and excited about her great day.  I was able to get a lot of school accomplished with Jax without their constant competition and fighting over who is going to get the biggest sticker on their worksheets.

Did you feel it..

or smell it?? FALL is in the air!!   EG ran into the house Saturday morning, "MOM, me and Micah smell fall!!" We spent the whole and I do mean WHOLE day outside. We just couldn't bring ourselves in, then we decided to celebrate falls arrival with a bon-fire so we cooked hotdogs and s'mores and had a great time around the fire with our great friends!!

                                                

                                               This is how Tyler spent the majority of his day

                                                              Coffee time with mom

                                                                Watching Baba

                                                     He liked burning the marshmallows

                                                                 rednecks at heart

                                                                   goofy girls..
