6 Months home with Noelle...plus Noelle's Adoption Video

We can't believe Noelle has been home with us for 6 months already! Where does the time go?
Stephanie just came out to the house to do our 6 month post placement visit which went great! That will be off to AWAA this week.
Noelle is learning so much....she can now help count to 5 and copies everything we say : )
She loves to watch Barna (Barney) and Ni Hao Kai-lan. Her favorite thing to do is eat snacks and read every book she owns with her Dada. Of course she loves her older sissy and loves it when she plays with her. In the evening she loves to cuddle with Mama and have a warm bottle of soy milk : )
I know we've said it before, but we feel soooo blessed that the Lord chose us to be her parents!
We love you Noelle!

Congratulations!!! It seems like yesterday we were racing to see who's dossier would get to China first. Funny how things turn out! What's that verse..."the first shall be last and the last shall be first!" So happy for you guys...just the first of many wonderful years together! Blessings to you all!!!

Great video! It doesn't seem like it has been six months since I followed your journey to bring Noelle home! She is growing up too quickly and looks more adorable all the time! Congratulations!

Beautiful video. Doesn't the time just fly by once they are home. But what a beautiful blessing these little girls, our girls are. Thank you for sharing your journey. Congratulations on 6 months home!!!

In Him,

The time sure goes by quickly. Good job on the video. I was crying all over again. God is good.

Do you know if AWAA will be at the SCC concert? We are going no matter what I was just wondering.

We just watched the video!!! Thank you for sharing this with us all. It was so wonderful and noelle is so precious. We just received our referral on 13th August for a girl from Jiangxi province who has developmental delay. She will be 3 on Christmas day. I was wondering what SN Noelle had/has if you did not mind sharing of course. I have followed your blog since you received your referral. (My husband is a Calvary Pastor here in England). Our email is cuozzo22@aol.com
