Life is moving forward at top speed. The boys started their new school this week. Kailahni is trying to walk. I'm still working on putting our new home together. We have our first post placement visit with our social worker on Friday. And...let's see...what else?! I don't really know what else is exciting and new for us, but we are busy...that's for sure. We went to the zoo last week, which was a lot of fun, so I'll have to post photos of that soon. But, for now, just LOOK at what our little girl is doing!!
Attempt #1...ALMOST!!!
Attempt #2....GETTING CLOSER
The Third time is the charm!!! I got smart and set the camera on the coffee table so I had both hands free!
And, finally, here she is showing off her mad walking skills to Doug and the boys! We are so proud!

Blessings Galore!!
Referrals for my 3/27 LID friends have finally arrived!!! Today has been such a joyous day! I am beside myself with joy and relief for these very deserving Mommies and their "Oh so" deserving children!
Introducing Zoey Wise!!! She is the daughter of my friend Stephanie and her husband Andrew. Stephanie has been such a huge source of support and friendship for me throughout our journey to Kailahni! She's an amazing woman who is going to be...I mean, IS a wonderful Mom. Zoey was born on March 16, 2009 and is currently waiting for Stephanie and Andrew in Jiangxi, China.
And here is Terri's bundle of joy! Her Chinese name is Yi Xiau Yang. She was born on March 5, 2009! She is also residing in Jiangxi Province. In fact, Stephanie and Terri's babies are in the same SWI. How awesome is that?! Terri is one of the first adoption mamas I met here in Phoenix! She's a beautiful person who is going to be such a loving, fun Mom! I can't wait to see her step off the plane, in just a few months, holding this precious child!!
There are more babies to come! This was a large LID day, and I am close with quite a few of the families! It's been a long, long wait...but SO WORTH IT!!!

Two words
TEETHING STINKS!
We are moved over to the new house, but not quite moved in yet! Jacob and Doug are on a 4 day canoe trip and Kailahni, Benji and I are having fun just hanging out together and unpacking! I'll post more later!
