Ready to Grow!

Our homegrown baby will most likely be joining us within the next week or two!  We can't wait to find out who this little person is.  We don't know if we're having a boy or a girl, and we don't even really have names picked out.  There are a few names that we like, but nothing definite at this point.  We didn't have names picked out prior to the births of our last two babies, but when we met them we were inspired.  Hope it's the same with this baby!

This is a birthday-heavy time of the year for our family, and it's only getting heavier.  It all starts with Sean's birthday in July...


Then Paul, whose 5th birthday we celebrated this past weekend...


Baby will be born sometime soon...


And Felix will turn 2 at the end of this month!


And then on September 5, Sean will be springing Alexander out of his orphanage once and for all!  Their plane tickets are booked, and Sean leaves in 26 days.  This has been such a long journey--almost 16 months from when we first inquired about him to when he will be arriving home.  That is almost like two biological pregnancies!  It feels very surreal that our little one has less than a month of orphanage life ahead of him, and that his siblings and I will be meeting him in a little over a month. 



How blessed we are!
