Seven Years!!

I can hardly believe it has been seven years since Leila was placed in my arms!! Oh what a treasure she is!! She has grown a lot lately. She will be starting the third grade this year and oh how this girl loves to read!! She will spend hours in her daddy's big chair reading.

Happy 7 year Gotcha Day Leila! We love you so much!!

Three Months

It has been three months with Ruiby and Jet!! They are really starting to bloom!!

Sprinkler Fun!! They both love the water!!

My Nutella boy!! I can't turn my back for a moment!

Our Little Man

This post is long over due! But this mama got the stomach flu and didn't get it done on time.

Jet has been with us two months now!! I remember as the months went by and we waited to bring our boy home,  we would once in awhile get an updated picture of our boy. I noticed one thing, there was never a smile on his face. I longed for the day when I would see that smile! Well let me tell you, we see that smile all day long!! from the moment he wakes in the morning he has a smile on his face and we will see it all through the day and as he snuggles up to me at bedtime, he will turn his little head up at me and give me that quick little smile and then hide his face. It is a beautiful thing!! This little broken boy has come so far in two month!!

WE LOVE YOU LITTLE MAN!!

HAPPY GOTCHA DAY LOTTIE

Happy 4 year Gotcha Day Lottie my girl!! Four years ago she walked into our lives and oh how we have been blessed!! This girl is so full of life and love!! She has come a long way in the last four years! We are reliving those first few months with her again with our two new little ones. She is a bright spot in our home, always smiling, laughing and playing some kind of trick. Loves to play her favorite bird game, that no one can seem to beet her at and would spend all day outside if she could. She loves to go to work with daddy or grandpa and loves to play in the dirt! Oh what an amazing little treasure she is!! We love you Lottie Mei!!

Two Months With Ruiby!

JOY!!

Our Beautiful Girl!!

A Treasure!!

A Blessing!

"Every Good and Perfect Gift Is From Above!"

Thank you Lord for this perfect gift!!

Our Little Man

Tomorrow marks the day that Jet has been with us one month. I can not believe how the time has flown  by. What can I say about this sweet boy of ours? He came into our lives unable to do so many things. He will be 2 1/2 next month and he hadn't started walking, but by the second day we had him,  he started to get brave and take a few steps. Now, he is trying to run!  He spent 28 months with out a family and it was hard on his little heart and mind. No longer will he have to rock himself or sing to himself. Oh no, this sweet boy has a family who adores and loves him. He has a mommy and daddy who love him oh so much, two big brothers who fly him around the room and four sisters that kiss his sweet checks every chance they get. We have seen huge things from this boy, but know he has so much further yet to go. He is like a butterfly wiggling in his cocoon and I can not wait to see him bush through, spread his wings to dry and fly!

We love you Jethro!!

My boy and his thumb!!

RUIBY

Ruiby has been with us one month today! Our girl is so sweet and so smart. She is learning so quickly. She continues to be her giggly, happy self. She is making good progress with bonding. We love this little girl so very much! We are so blessed to have this little treasure in our lives!

Since we did not have a very good Internet  connection in her province and pictures did not want to come through. I wanted to add some of her GOTCHA DAY pictures here today , with some pictures that were taken this week.

We love you Ruiby!!

Seeing our girl for the first time!!

Finally in mama's arms!
