January
Just a few weeks after returning home, we welcomed little Juliana into the Church on the Feast of the Baptism of Our Lord. For us, it was the final welcome into our family!February
Juju celebrated her first birthday and started to grow some hair!March
March was a difficult month for us as we found out Aunt Missy was in heart failure. We have come to appreciate more fully every moment we have with each other.April
We celebrated the Resurrection of Our Lord.May
We decided to "get in line" for another adoption from China. We expected it would take 12 months to 18 months before we were matched with our newest child. We were quite surprised when it took little more than 18 hours before we saw Joseph's beautiful smile.June
We were again surprised this month with the news that not only would the adoption come faster than expected, we were also going to be welcoming another little baby into our family. The girls spent their first days of summer beating the heat in the basement.July
We enjoyed some family time at the State Fair.August
Our first ever soccer season began. Soccer practice four nights a week, games on Saturday.September

We enjoyed hayrides, pumpkin patches, apple cider, and college football.November

Merry Christmas!Blessings to all our dear friends and family as we usher in a new year and a new decade!
