I'm a blog slacker!

Here is Makayla in her Christmas dress I bought in CA. She has such a serious look.
Her she is sleeping in her swing tonight. She is up to 10.5 lbs. I had to take her to the dr. last week and today, so she gained a pound in a week.

Here is Daddy & his princesses.

Yummy!

Makayla eating cereal & loving it!
She knew exactly what to do when the spoon got to her mouth. I couldn't give it to her fast enough before she'd get mad.

Our little pumkin.(looks like she's hiding a pumkin under her shirt!)


Done with pictures!


Click on Trevor Tredaway on the leftt hand side to see how God worked through Trevor's surgeon to remove 95% of the tumor that has been growing in his brain!! The doctor's originally thought it was inoperable. After chemo and an alternative treatment, Trevor's tumor was not responding so his next option was chemo again. He is now at St. Jude's in Memphis receiving the best care and treatment imaginable! Trevor still has a long road ahead of him, but he is now off to a good start! Remember this sweet 3 year old boy in your prayers!

November is National Adoption Month!


November is National Adoption Month, a month set aside to raise awareness about the adoption of children and youth.
Number of Adoptions from Guatemala:

2007: 4,728

2006: 4,135 (one of these were Maegan!!)

2005: 3,783

2004: 3,252

2003: 2,328

2002: 2,219

I am deeply saddened by these numbers because as you can tell each year the numbers grew. Now with adoptions halted in Guatemala, where are all these children and babies going? Their futures are dark.


Current estimates of the annual number of infants adopted domestically (excluding foster and relative adoption) range from 25,000 to 30,000!!

Halloween

Mallory came by to meet Makayla & hold her. Maegan was being a picture pooper. She didn't want her picture taken.
SUGAR CRASH!!!! from the 2 parties she had at daycare.

RECOVERED!!!! Happy Guatemalan Dorothy!


Big Dorothy & Baby Dorothy. I didn't have time to find Makayla red shoes so she is Dorothy before the Good Witch gave her the ruby slippers.

She looks so innocent, but she was really acting like Nellie Olsen!

Dorothy & Kaden the Lion

Maegan's daycare buddies Ian & Dylan.

Do I have to even label this one????
