Olivia
Our GIRLS!!!!!

Olivia is 13 months old now.  She's quite active and I just love her spunk! You can see it in her. Here's a video we got of her.  We haven't yet gotten any videos of Emily or updated pictures but as soon as we do, we will share.  In the mean time here's a little live-action-glance at Livy!

We are totally crazy! Crazy to attempt it and CRAZY in love with these two beauties!

The time cannot tic away fast enough but... we have SO much to accomplish.  First and foremost is getting my mom and step-dad healthy.  These girls are going to keep us all hopping, no doubt about that!

This week the LAST two pieces of our Dossier are at the Texas Secretary of State office being certified.  Every other document they've done has taken 2 days max.  This time we are at day 4 and counting.  *sigh* As soon as I get them in my hands they'll be mailed to Houston to the Chinese Consulate and then on to our agency with a bajillion dollars to complete our Dossier.  They'll translate it, triple check it, and send it to CHINA! As soon as it hits China, we begin the longest and final big wait.  After that... things click right along.  It's still looking like August is realistic.  I'm hopeful that it's before then but God is in control!  I just hope he'll see fit to speed things up! :-) it's easy to get frustrated about things being held up here or there but there's a part of me that thinks that being held up here or there allows them to slide into the right place in line elsewhere. :-)

We've got to get this house ready with TWO twin beds and prepare a room fit for two princesses!

Man, we love these kiddos.  Join with us in prayer that God keeps his hand upon them and prepares their hearts for GOTCHA DAY!  As exciting as it is for us... it's traumatic for them.  We are realizing our dreams... they are being ripped from everything they know.  That part breaks my heart.  My prayer each day is that God will supernaturally whisper our names to them and somehow help them to recognize us and feel safe with us.

With Love and EXCITEMENT... and a little fear!
Jenn & Rob
