What A Wonderful Surprise!

This afternoon, Tom and I got a surprise in our Inboxes! One of the fabulous people we traveled with in China sent us some photos. We were very lucky to have traveled to such a beautiful country with such amazing people to meet our son. Thank you for the photos, Alice!

Medical Exam in China

This was the day the sky opened up and poured on us!!! We were on our way to Zachary's Medical Exam in China and we got DRENCHED! Then, the tears began and we got drenched again!

Zach's Love For Little One's Began In China

Grandma Oerter's Birthday

Black Friday ended with Grandma's Birthday Celebration! Happy Birthday, Grandma!

Zachary With His Cousins

Zachary got to meet his cousins, Kyle and Kaitlyn, for the first time on Thanksgiving! Uncle Craig and Aunt Mary too! Here he is with all his cousins.....pretty cute, huh?

Uncle Dan And The Elmo Laptop

The Elmo laptop strikes again! Somehow Zachary's Uncle Dan was able to get him to slow down enough to actually listen to the questions. Zachary's button pushing got him a lot of "Does Not Compute's", but Uncle Dan got a lot of "YAY's!" Zach had big fun playing with his uncle!

Dancing With Daddy

Zachary likes to get a little dancing in every day! He's got the music in him for sure! He knows how to turn on the stereo all by himself. #5 on the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse CD is his favorite!

Brilliant Purchase

Thinking it was a good idea, I purchased an Elmo laptop for Zachary. WOW. It is cute....but completely obnoxious. He tried to type as fast as I type, so this is what we hear...."Cookie Monster, Cookie, Cookie, Cookie Monster, Elmo, Elmo, Ernie, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Cookie, Cookie, Cookie, Cookie Monster, Elmo!" No volume control either. Awesome.

So Much To Be Thankful For....

My life is blessed. Tom and I have a beautiful son. Zachary is an amazing little boy. So funny. So loving. So perfect. We have a wonderful family. We have great friends. We have a nice house, plenty of food, money in the bank, our health...the list goes on and on. We are very thankful for all that God has given us.

Play Date At The Treehouse

Today Zachary had a play date with his friend Lexi at the Treehouse! Thank you for playing with Zachary, Jen and Lexi!!! We had a ton of fun!
