Update from the agency

We got a fabulous email from Welcome House today with these new pictures! I'm not sure when they were taken, but you can see how fast Daniel is growing!!! He's already pulling up in the crib, so it looks like we'll be taking that bumper out before he even gets to use it. He might very well be walking before he gets home...yikes, we'll be in trouble then!












Pictures

Another really sweet family who traveled to pick up their little girl visited with Daniel a couple of times and took some new pictures for us! He's getting so big, we just can't believe it. Apparently, he adores the little yellow bus that he's playing with in these pictures. Now we're on the search for the perfect toy bus to have waiting for him : )

Cute Dogs

While I'm uploading pictures, here are some cute ones of the dogs!


We spent some time in the backyard playing keep away and catch with the dogs yesterday, and Sandy was trying to quit on us! We wouldn't let her and she finally stole the ball and hid underneath the butterfly bush next to the patio so we couldn't get it! She looks awfully pleased with herself!

Argo lounging on the couch! He needed to recover from barking at the dogs next door and begging for treats :)




Nursery Pics!







We go a lot of work done in the nursery since Dom came home from Altus, so here are some pictures! It's not totally done, but we're getting there! The basic theme is elephants, which are on the bumper in the crib and the rug on the floor. The pictures are scanned from the book Babar's Museum of Art, framed and hung like clusters of artwork in a museum. If you look closely in the second picture-you'll see Whistler's Mother and The Scream with the elephants from Babar instead of people! It's hard to explain in words, so maybe later I'll post a close up of some of the images. They turned out really cute!

New photos!




Thanks to a family who traveled to get their daughter in Korea recently, we got two new shots of Daniel at the reception center! Looks like he's happy and healthy, so now we just need to get him home! We're waiting on the Philadelphia immigration office to approve our file, so hopefully we'll have some more good news soon.
