September and October Update

So I am not so great at this blogging thing and tend to do better doing monthly updates.  Im sure when our precious child arrives I will try to be better about keeping you all up to date!  But for now, I will update you on the last few weeks of our lives.  We continue to see Gods hand in this adoption process and really appreciate you all that follow this blog, pray for us and for our child and their family overseas. We feel so blessed and humbled that so many people take our request for the orphans up to the Lord in prayer!

Some September and October highlights for us were........

Family from IL came to visit and we enjoyed catching up and loving on them and their precious kiddos!

We have been waiting for 8 1/2 months for a referral and have moved up to #21 on the unofficial waiting list with our agency!! We are slowly moving on up! We look forward to finding out who our precious child is going to be!! :)

In early October Emilee and I visited Tana, Chip and Tank and went to a really cool kids consignment sale.  We really enjoyed our time catching up with them, loving on Tank and talking about pregnancy and baby things!

Emilee and Tank sporting the Hokie gear for game day and reading books!

Tank is such a sweet and happy boy!

  Emilee (30 weeks) and Tana (23.5 weeks)! We are looking forward to the winter when baby Jackson and Baby T arrive!

Then this past weekend Jared and spent the weekend camping at Douthat State Park enjoying this beautiful fall weather.  It was a wonderful and relaxing trip that we both really needed away from our normal routines!
