And our family grows!

When Andy and I got married,we knew we wanted children. We have been waiting to see when God's plan for our family would happen, and now it has! We started the process of Russian adoption right around Easter 2010. We looked at all different countries and all of the laws and guidelines that each country had, but Russia called to us, and we knew it was the home of our child. We have been working all year to get all the many documents and paperwork together that is required. I have been working overtime like crazy to build up my leave time for when our child would come home. Andy was working like crazy, just because he had to anyway;)  We started planning for a child we did not yet know when or how he would come to us.  Then, all our efforts paid off, and we were matched with a beautiful baby boy of 9 months!!  Our hearts couldn't be any more full of love!!!  Now we are awaiting our upcoming court date on 1/28/10  and to bring our son home 10 days later. Owen is truly a gift, and we cannot wait to have him with us forever!!!
