I can’t believe it’s been a little over a month since we have been home. Addie is such a joy! She is such a sweet, happy & easy baby and we feel so blessed that she is ours. It has been so amazing to watch her come alive over the past month. She soaks up...
I haven’t had much time to blog because I have been too busy packing! We were thrilled to pass court on our first date for our adoption and completely surprised by a super fast embassy appointment, which means we are off to Ethiopia! We leave today on the adventure of a lifetime and return home...
That’s what we have been doing ever since we received our referral two weeks ago for a precious, two month old baby girl. I have been in a daze since we got the news, dreaming of the day when I will be able to hold her in my arms and truly know her. We were...
Praying for Haiti and for those suffering all around the world. It is so overwhelming but also reinforces our decision to add to our family through adoption. Since everyone has been curious, here are some details about how we have been progressing on our journey. We started the process in late October and everything so far...
I admit it, a week or two ago I just wasn’t feeling it.

I shared pictures previously from Sarah & Adam’s maternity session but just in case you need a little refresher, here they are at the end of a long journey to parenthood.
And the two little beings that made it all worthwhile. Introducing Maxwell & Annabel.
I think “Mr. Serious” might need a new nickname…
Loved Annabel’s eyelashes &...
…like my own. The most talented & inspiring man I know. A treasure hunter, an avid outdoorsman, a craftsman who has built his own adirondack guide boat, guitar, furniture to name just a few. A poet & songwriter, talented singer & guitar player, able to play any song he hears without reading music....
Oh my… these two made me miss my boys being babies and made me remember everything I love about this age. Like the little curls on the nape of their neck that never grow back after the first hair cut, the way they walk on their tippy-toes and the way that they take your hand...
