A few pictures

I think its time for a new camera, mine is starting to make the pictures blurry I noticed today. Just some random pictures to try to keep up on the blog :)

Chapel Day

Chapel Wednesday With A Prayer

At Chapel last week Makenzie had the honor of saying the prayer in front of the whole school. Her class did a great job telling a story from the bible and everyone had a part they had to say out loud, it was really sweet to see her and spend the morning with her at Chapel.

Finally a picture of the 4! and of course Makenzie at the park.

My Sunday To Update

You don't choose your family. They are God's gifts to you,as you are to them. ~Desmond Tutu

I have been out of the blog loop for a little while and thought I would start back with some misc. pictures of the 2 little ones. This month Aslynn is 16 months and Bryce is 19 months. They are both doing really great, and we are so proud of them both. Aslynn amazes us everyday with tons of new words, hugs out of nowhere, fully bonded, she is so integrated into the family,its like she was here from birth. Bryce we still are working through all our surprises we were unaware of and still attaching as he had to have been through some rough times growing up that he really blocks off people and the world. He would rather be alone and in his crib than out and bout and with others. He pushes love away, but we just keep sharing and giving, we are slowly breaking that shell,along with helping him overcome eating and gaining a little weight. I need to measure him, his legs look longer, and he has been eating hamburger and other foods that he has been holding down, he is progressing in many ways, we hope he will know we are his forever family build the trust if his mind will allow it even though he is special needs, and we can help him with the resources possible so he can grow and become the fullest God allows him to be.

We do have our daily battles, it is challenging and at times I do have my moments, but I know he was sent here to our home for a reason and we as a family are strong and will push through the rough times.

Makenzie is doing wonderful in school, she loves her after school classes. She does cooking,dance,chess club,and golf..she picked these all, I know she is crazy :) but doing great, she moved up a level in math!

Logan loves preschool and the teacher said he tests higher for his level, enjoys his friends, we shaved his Mohawk off for a new look as he turns 4 this Wednesday, sad he is growing up so fast.

Everyone is doing the best we can right now, scabies comes and goes, and we are beating to the best we can and keep on trucking through life. We know that 2010 will be a fresh new year and change for everyone.

Many blessings to you all, hope everyone's referrals are coming in quick, traveling is going great, and enjoying their new little ones that are just arriving home.
