Last Birthday Post - Birthday Post Part 3

So excited!  Birthday photos arrived today.  The boys look so precious! I think you can see a little of their personalities.  Oh what fun we are going to have when they come home!

                                     Package we sent the boys plus 2 cakes

Happy Birthday, Boys!- Post 2

We had a little celebration of our own for the boys.  Zachary made them a delicious cake.  It isn't a birthday without presents so they got a few presents too.  I made the toddler blankets.  It was my first attempt.  The stitching is uneven and crooked but they are still cute.  I hope the boys will like them.

Happy Birthday,Boys!

Happy 3rd Birthday, Caleb and Jacob! No their names have not been definitely decided yet.  I am just testing them out to see how we like them.

Since it is 10:30 p.m.  in China the boys most likely are in bed for the night.  I hope they were treated special today and received the cakes and trucks we sent.  Hoping to open an email to a few pictures in the next couple of days.

Last year the boys were still on the shared list and many advocates were trying to find them a home.  One advocate sent them a birthday cake and received pictures of them.  I am posting a few below.

Today We Are....

Dossier to Agency

No, we are not DTC yet but we are getting there.  Our dossier left via fedex to make its long trek to our agency in California.  It will be there tomorrow.  Dossiers from our agency are sent to China on Friday.   Praying I didn't make any mistakes and everything looks good so we can be DTC on February 1.

January Gift Exchange

I am loving this gift exchange!  Here are the gifts the boys and I received this month.  The toys and cups will be great to put in their backpacks for the trip home.  I especially love the t-shirt!
