Check out our new shirts!

We've been waiting to bust these out for 9 months now...

We got a call on September 13 telling us to check our email.  In our email was a referral for our little girl.

We said "yes."  Then busted out the shirts to do our first family photo, with as close as we can get to her right now.

Our children were highly cooperative...

Hmmmm, maybe sitting them on chairs will make for better photos...

 

52 pictures, and that was the best we got.


Only to be told that we couldn't post anything on our blog about her.  Yeah... that isn't going to work so much.  We've only been waiting 9 months.  We can't not post something.  Unfortunately, we can't post any details or her actual picture until we've passed our court date in Ethiopia, which won't likely be for several months.  But we decided if we made the blog private, we could at least post that we finally got a referral, and had seen her face (which, by the way, is adorable.)

But if you wanted to stop by our house, we could show you pictures.  Or if you see Paige out and about, because she has several copies in her purse, and has already chased neighbors down in the street to show them.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
