Adoption Update

So we thought we would be traveling in August, but again Russia runs behind.  We had to redo a bunch of paperwork for no apparent reason.  We also will be repeating the kid's physicals and all our labwork and xrays this month.  The word we get is that our court date will be in September.  Please continue to pray for things to go smoothly and that maybe one of these grant people would feel sorry for us and give us some money :)  We are anxious to bring Alexis home.  We've been working on her room and when its done we will post pics.

Kiddo quotes

So we were explaining to Jackson and Jonah yesterday that they were starting swim lessons. Jonah makes a fist and pumps it straight in the air and says "SWEET!"  

The boys have been really into Toy Story and so we broke down and bought Toy Story 2.  There's a horse on there called Bullseye, but according to Jonah he's Pullseye.  Pullseye goes everywhere with us... no there's no toy just a horse in Jonah's imagination that goes in the car, in the pool and pretty much anywhere we go.

Jackson announced to me the other day that when Lexi got here he was going to teach her "how to do nice things and jump really high".

Jonah's tent

A few times this year when we've been bored, we make a tent out of Jonah's bed. Apparently during nap he decided to make his own tent and then fall asleep in it.  Notice that he's also at the foot of the bed.
