ISABELLA~~ MAGDALENA~~`

WE WOULD LOVE TO GET ISABELLA ~ MAGDALENA HOME SOON . WE WOULD LIKE TO START WORKING WITH HER. LOTS OF ONE ON ONE , SO SHE WILL LEARN TO TALK AND WALK. WE KNOW WITH LOTS OF STIMULATION SHE WILL FLOURISH. IF YOU SPEND TIME WITH THE CHILDREN THEY DO LEARN, WE SPEND LOTS OF HOURS A DAY WORKING WITH OUR CHILDREN. ALOT OF REPETITION ,WE DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER UNTIL THEY CATCH ON. THEY GET SO EXCITED WHEN THEY LEARN NEW THINGS. OUR LITTLE GIRLS TAKE DANCE LESSONS AND THEY LOVE IT. TAP, JAZZ OR TUMBLING.SO WE WILL HAVE TO GET ISABELLA ~MAGDALENA WALKING SO SHE CAN TAKE TUMBLING CLASS. SHE WILL HAVE SO MUCH FUN, THEY HAVE LITTLE TINY KIDDOS THAT TAKE DANCE AND TUMBLING. SO SHE WILL FIT RIGHT IN. WE ARE TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT SIZE SHE IS . WE WOULD LIKE TO GO SHOPPING AND GET HER NEW CLOTHES AND SHOES READY FOR HER. I HAVE ALREADY MADE BELLA SOME FLEECE BLANKETS, GOT HER SOME SNUGGLE STUFFED TOYS. THE AWESOME PUPPY WITH BLUE EARS, WE HEAR THE KIDDOS JUST LOVE THIS PUPPY. SO BELLA HAS HER PUPPY WAITING FOR HER. BELLAS LUGGAGE IS PACKED AND READY TO GO . WE HAVE JUST A COUPLE THINGS TO PUT IN OURS. I THINK WE WILL BRING EXTRA CLOTHES IN OUR CARRY ON BAGS , SO WE HAVE AT LEAST ONE OUTFIT WITH US IN CASE OUR LUGGAGE DOESN'T MAKE THE TRIP WITH US. HERE IS MY FAVORITE PICTURE OF BELLA ~ SHAWNIE IS PLAYING PATTY CAKE WITH HER.BELLA LOOKS LIKE SHE IS HAVING FUN INTERACTING WITH SHAWNIE. BELLA WE LOVE YOU AND WILL BE THERE AS SOON AS WE CAN . LOVE YA BABY!!!!!!!!

~~ FISHING IN VIRGINA CITY~~

WE TOOK THE KIDDOS TO VIRGINA CITY TO THE PONDS TO GO FISHING, SOMETIMES THEY CAN CATCH REALLY BIG FISH. NOT TODAY THEY GOT SKUNKED, BUT THAT DIDN'T MATTER TO THEM. THEY HAD ALOT OF FUN, INCLUDING MEGAN~~ PARIS, SHE STAYED IN THE EXPEDITION MOST OF THE TIME. SHE DOESN'T LIKE THE NIGHT CRAWLERS. SO WE TOLD HER SHE COULD USE CORN OR MARSHMELLOWS. THEN SHE GOT OUT TO FISH A LITTLE.

~~Jump on the roller coaster ride of Adoption~~~

Yes , Adoption is like being on a roller coaster ride. We were so hoping to travel in June, but we got word today we will not travel until fall. That is so heart breaking, we would love to get Magda home asap. So we could start showing her a families love. We really feel she would have had three months home with us by then, if we would have got her in june. But as you know we have no control over any of this. So we just have to go with what is handed to us. Yes it will be hard waiting that extra time for Magda,but she will be well worth it.

~~~FINGER PRINTS, APOSTILLED PAPERS~~~

We had a very busy day,we got everybody going early so we could go out of town .We needed to get our USCIS,I600A FILED,we got our digital finger prints done.They told us we should get our approval letter in couple weeks. We sure hope it goes that qiuck. We aslo went to the capitol building to get the apostills on all our paper work for our Dossier.We thought we were doing great, we got to the secretary of state office, the lady checked our papers. She told us we needed to take them back to our notary, she did them wrong. So back on the highway to Butte,MT, Good thing Helena,Mt, is only an hour away. So we went back to our notary, she fixed all the papers. Then back on the highway to Helena. iT IS 1 HOUR there, so 4 hours of riding time for the kiddos. They get bored with that really quick. Deztany and Andrew sit in the third row seat, they throw things at each other and love to tease each other. Then you have Megan and McKenzie in the middle seat, Megan likes to tease McKENZIE all the time, about any and everything. But all in all everything went good. DOSSIER IS ALL APOSTILLED,READY TO GO. WE JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR THEM TO TELL US WHEN WE CAN SEND IT. WE NOW ARE WAITING FOR APPROVAL OF I171H . THEN THE REAL WAIT BEGINS. No new pictures yet, we will post some when we get them. We got to do some shopping today. We got all the gifts bought that we need to take with us. I have 3 suit cases packed, lots of toys, dresses and girly things for Magda. She will be so loved, we can't wait.If i pack anything else, Gary and i are going to have to buy clothes there. Well we think the paper chase is done, or we hope so . have a great day!!!

Waiting for DHL to deliver our home study~~~

Yes , we waited most of today for DHL,to deliver our home study to the social worker.That way we could get the notarized home study, get I600A filed and get our digital finger prints done. Thanks to DHL they didn't deliver in the morning like they were suppose to. So much for paying the extra fee to get it delivered quick. We will go out of town tomorrow to get it all done. We hope so . We will be getting all the papers Appostilled, and ready to send out. We are so excited to be bring magda into our family. I THINK WE WILL SEND THE DOSSIER OUT FED-EX. Maybe it will get there in a timely manner. We should get new pictures of Magda tomorrow, there is a family in her country right now.They got to take pictures of the kids today.

~~`We will be adding to our family.~~

YES!!!! We found our newest member of our family. We will need to travel to get her. She is in Eastern Europe. We hope to be able to travel very soon. Like maybe June or Sept. We are hopeful for June. We would like to get her home soon. She is one pretty little girl, and feel she will fit right in with our family.We will only need to be gone for about 14 days total, then she will come home with us. That will only be one trip away from our other children. So that helps us, we sure have a hard time being away from all of our children, little ones and big ones. This will be like a honeymoon for Gary & I, with an added bonus. A new daughter!!!! Are little kiddos are so excited to be getting a new sister, they can't wait for us to bring her home. We really are so excited!!! We would like alot of encourageing words, if you have something negative to say , please don't say it to us. We are very happy with our decision. We can't wait to hold and hug Magda, she is precious, she needs us to work one on one with her. She will have alot of sibling help also. We found our little one on WWW.Reeces Rainbow.com We have looked at many children, over the past few months, and we feel Magda is our daughter. So we will be getting all the paper work ready so we can go get her. OK: Auntie Linda and Auntie Maddie now we will need to have a big garage sale very soon. Are you up for helping? Let us know,how about helping with the kids. How many do you want to take when we are gone on our trip? OK: here are pictures of Magda. We hope to get more soon. There is another family traveling soon to get their son. We are hopeful they will be able to get more pictures for us.
