WE ARE IN GUATEMALA!!!








I always thought how wonderful it would be to post pictures with us actually here with Ella, so we finally made it. Sarah, my oldest, and I are in Guatemala spending 6 days here and it is amazing. God has already opened doors for us to talk with people interested in improving adoptions. We are making lots of great contacts, having fun and getting to spend precious bonding time with our sweet baby girl. Please pray that we get to bring her home soon to join our family.

NEW PICTURES OF OUR BABY!!!

We just got new pictures of Ella this morning. She is so cute and growing bigger. :-( We are planning a trip to see her in about 2 weeks and I can't wait! She will be 8 months the end of this month. Prayerfully she will come home within the next month, but with Guatemalan adoptions getting more and more difficult it is up to God and His perfect timing. We have found that He has everything perfectly planned and He will find the perfect time, but it is just hard waiting for Ella and missing more of her life everyday. We love her so much and can't wait to see her in person. 

Here are the pictures.

New Background!

Check out the new background! I really liked the old one, but I wanted to freshen it up and get something new. I found this awesome site from my friend's blog. It is a really cool site where you can get some pretty awesome backgrounds for free!
