Good Timing

Daniel and Benjamin each have several cousins who are close to their ages.  They love playing with their cousins, and they really don't care if those cousins are boys or girls because they all have fun together.  Whenever we get together with my extended family or Wayne's extended family, our boys have a great time with all of the kids. 

Over the somewhat recent holidays, we heard announcements from Wayne's sister and two sisters-in-law that they are all expecting babies this summer, in June, July, and August.  That means three sweet babies for us to love.  It also means that forever after, there will be three cousins all the same age at the big family parties.  Lucky kids.  It couldn't be any better if their parents had planned it that way.

It would be totally fabulous if we got a baby sometime between now and the end of the summer.  Then our baby would be the same age as all of those cousins!

With that goal in mind, we have been working hard at updating our adoption stuff again  First, we have our new blog button.  Next, we've completely updated our adoption profile at Parent Profiles.  We've got a bunch of new pictures on it.  One of the reasons for that is that we got new family pictures taken a couple of weeks ago.  After an hour of picture taking, I think we got some pretty good pictures.  The one at the top of the blog is my favorite--it was fun and silly.  Here are a couple of others that we liked:

So, keep praying for us.  And keep passing along our information to any potential birth parents.  We still give out our adoption cards all the time.  We started with 1000 cards a year and a half ago.  Now we probably have less than 200 left.  That's pretty good, huh?  That gives me another thing to update because I'll probably need to get some new cards soon.  Thank you again to everyone who has helped us by passing along our cards and posting our blog button.
