Gone Wild with Pinterest
Thanks to my dearest friend in the entire world, who happens to be my baby sister I now have a new hobby or what some might call an addiction. Thanks Val.
www.pinterest.com You can collect all those ideas into one spot. I used to tear a project idea or receipe out of a magazine and hope to keep it somewhere i would not only find it again but use it.
Ha, Dan can attest I have papers all over the house, things i need to keep, just in case - sounds like a hoarder doesn't it? well now I can hoard all those ideas online!
I have so many more ideas now, diy projects, organizations ideas, and of course reciepes!

Happy Birthday Evan
Evan: "God is Gracious"
Keep us in your prayers we continue to attempt to be patient at waiting to squeeze those cheeks and pray that he continues to thrive in his foster home, and also that Mrs. Choi and her family continue to be blessed by him!

Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday Baby Moon!
Although this photo was taken in May when he received our care package it is the last photo we have for now.
Baby Moon is now 23lb (which is good news, the way he is packing it on the last few months I was a little worried I wouldn't be able to lift him when it came time!)
Dan and I went out for Dairy Queen to celebrate, Yumm! We sat on the picnic tables and eventually settled on a name for Baby Moon! But it is secret for now! At least until we have his birthday photos to share!

unfortunate news
We received some unwelcome news, our wait just got a bit longer. instead of the 10 months they had thought when we started it will now be closer to 14 months. So we are looking at February or March.
I am trying to motivate myself that it gives us longer to earn more vacation time away and save more $$ for the big trip to Korea!
I have a whole list of things I want to get done around the house before he comes home, one of which is painting his room and making all the bed linens. Thank you Ty Pennington for the inspiration!

Could he be any cuter?

Baby Moon @ 7 months!

He is packing on the pounds with rice, cheese, yogurt, bananas, and apples! Not to mention he still gets up every two hours from sleep to eat - what a little piggy!
From the report he is sitting up, crawling and loves to hear "you're such a handsome boy". ahhh.
LOVE those feet!

We can see God's plan at work
God is so GREAT!
So one of the coolest part of our referral of Baby Moon is his foster family!

As I read through the referral it tells about his foster family and keeps referring to Mrs. Choi and I thought maybe Choi is a common name because I know that was Hudson's foster mom's name. As I continued to read about her I thought WOW that really sounds just like Hudson's Mrs. Choi. I finally looked at the photo . . . It is Mrs. Choi!!!! Hudson's foster momma! We are not even working with the same agency so it is so weird to be placed with same family! It is wonderful to know that he is being taken such good care of, we know Hudson was well-loved and treasured and we feel like Baby Moon is in good hands!
Secondly, Hudson and Baby Moon were actually living as foster brothers for about 3 months! God is so good to remind us He holds our plans, our lives, our future in His hands! Having this connection with Hudson and Mrs. Choi made me feel so loved by our God! He does love to surprise us!
