blankets

We got a gift today from Jeni's cousin, Johanna. She sent it with a friend. She crocheted a blanket for our future daughter!!! It was so sweet of her. Thank you Johanna!!! 

She also made one for Joseph and gave it to him while we were in Colorado. She's very talented. Both blankets are beautiful. What a blessing to have these handmade blankets for our children! They're so loved!

Dibaba wins the gold!

I just think that Ethiopians are such beautiful people! We were excited to watch Dibaba from Ethiopia win the gold in the 5,000m race! There are other Ethiopians in the Olympics, but we happened to watch this one! I couldn't help but think...could our daughter look like her? 

   

Speaking of Ethiopian runners...Joseph will be running before too long. He is standing up all the time!! He walks around the furniture and he loves it when we hold his hands so he can take steps.

dreaming of a girl

We have a friend who is moving back to America. We bought a few girly things from her. We can't wait to have our little girl!!! She'll look cute in her little swim suit! :)

I think Joseph wants a little sister. See how he admires his friend Layla in this picture. He'll be a good big brother!
