We recently became a family of 4 through the miracle of adoption. We started in Uzbekistan and ended up adopting our daughter from Russia! Sunday, January 11, 2009. At first I thought, oh my, we get to sit in business class! But, since we had children we got to go through the lines for business class passengers for immigration and security. That was just about as good as sitting in business class. There was little to no line and made it so much easier navigating security with 2 kids. The lady that looks ...

We recently became a family of 4 through the miracle of adoption. We started in Uzbekistan and ended up adopting our daughter from Russia! Monday, August 31, 2009. Wow, time has flown. Vera has now been home with us for 8 months. It is so weird to think back to this time last year. We still had no idea when we would get the call that they had a child in mind for us. What a difference a year makes! Vera is almost 34 inches tall at 22.5 months old. That is the same height that Kiara. Also, this month, we g...

Vera has now been in the US longer than Russia! Wow, we have finally hit that milestone of Vera being with us longer than she lived in Russia. Ryan can't believe that has already happened, but to me it feels like she has lived with us longer than she did in Russia. (Maybe that is because I am with her all day, every day!
