Today marks 4 years since our file was logged in by someone in China - I can't believe our file has been sitting on a shelf for 4 YEARS. I really have no words - I never thought it would take this long, I mean we were told 9-12 months. I am actually hoping/praying it is only 12 more months - so pathetic really. I don't understand it :(
On another note - I know I am almost the worst blogger ever and every so often I get back into it and post a few things but I really am going to try to be better at documenting this next year or so. I want to be able to look back at this time an know what we were doing when Mhyia was born, when she was 1 month, 2 months etc... but I do have 1 request...
PLEASE COMMENT!!! I see the counter go up all the time but no one posts :( Even if you literally just type hi - I am okay with that - in fact I would love it!
Thanks to everyone who has followed us faithfully these last 4 LONG years and I hope you continue to do so the next year or two - I feel like for the first time in a long time there might be a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel!!

Happy Birthday to the best Husband Ever!!
Happy Birthday Mike - I love you sooo much!!!
Unfortunately Mike is away this week and this if the first time I have not been with him on his birthday since we met 19 years ago :( He is away at a work conference.
We had a family birthday party this past weekend - a Mad Hatter Tea Party Birthday Party!! Mike has ALWAYS loved Alice in Wonderland and he also loves Johnny Depp so this years theme was a no brainer. As you can see in the pics Mike dressed up as the Mad Hatter and no one was allowed in without a hat on - we had so much fun. I made the cakes and made little tags for the tea cups and for the food ("eat me and drink me") - we rented tea cups, plates and flamingos. It was sooo much fun I wish I could just stay home and plan parties all the time LOL.
Anyways as exciting as this year was we are hoping that next year will be Mike's most exciting birthday yet - we are hoping that we should be very close to a referral by then - fingers crossed!!
Front Door
some treats and decor
Some decorations and food - also the "Queen of Hearts" wine we found!!
The Mad Hatter himself
Emma dressed up as a "goth" Alice - we were so excited that she did!
She is awesome ~ it's no surprise we call her "mini Mike"
Table decor
The cakes I made - the rabbit and the watch
