Ethiopian Adoption

Christmas in the Sand

>> Sunday, December 21, 2008

Today we went out to the desert to take some Christmas pictures. Joseph cooperated as much as a 15 month old who is teething could. He loved walking in the sand and falling down the hill! Silly boy! :) We know it will probably be much more difficult to take pictures with two kiddos. Next year's Christmas pictures will look so much different.

we love Ethiopians!

>> Saturday, December 20, 2008

People keep asking what's the news with our second adoption. Well, we are STILL waiting on the child abuse reports to come in...please pray that it comes in soon!! That's the last piece of paperwork needed to complete our paperwork. Ugh...it always seems like we're waiting on one more thing. 

We have a couple of Ethiopian friends that we see once in a while. Ethiopians are such wonderful people! I guess it's an understatement to say that we like Ethiopians and we can't wait to add another one to our family! Below are a couple pictures of Ethiopian ladies who just love Joseph. 

This picture is a lady who works at Chili's. She just goes crazy over Joseph. The other day when we went to Chili's she took Joseph to go play while we ate our meal. It was so nice to be able to eat our meal in peace and watch Joseph chase after a balloon on the other side of the restaurant. :) 


This is a picture of an Ethiopian lady who bought Joseph the big teddy bear. She watched him walking around and knew that he was from Ethiopia. When she gave him the teddy bear he hugged it and she started crying. So sweet!!

taking advantage of the sale!

Well Baby Shop had it's second sale of the year and we took advantage of it today. We bought a new car seat for Joseph and we'll use the other one for our little girl. He was ready for a little bigger car seat and it was on sale!! It's funny that last year during the sale we bought his crib. It was in the storage room for a few months. Now our little girl's car seat will be in storage for a few months until she needs it. 


Our little boy is getting so big. Here he is in his new car seat. (I wish I had a video of him doing the sign...he still loves sign language.) The funny thing is the storm cloud you see out the window. It rained today and it hardly ever rains!!! We liked it. :) 

This is the word "sale" in Arabic.
