Mimi went to THAILAND, what?!

Although we found out E had an ear infection the day after we arrived, we still had a fun time playing in the sand & sun, making memories with Mimi, eating yummy food, and just escaping the harshness of the country we live in. Thailand is known as "the land of smiles" and the people there are warm and welcoming. :-)

A Miracle Visit!

Lots of people ask us if we've seen any miracles happen while living here. The answer to that is YES!!!! Recently, L's mom came to visit and see us (and her grand babies of course!) If you know L's mom and her thoughts about this place and HEAT, you'd know that her coming is nothing short of a miracle! We were beyond blessed to have her here and we are looking forward to her next visit... ;)

{E was excited to explore with Mimi!}

{Mimi is LOTS of fun!}

{JH gives Mimi the MOST sweet smiles!}

 {Mimi decided to let E help her water the grass, and the plants, and the bucket, and himself...}

 {JH loves his Mimi SO much that his little toes curl under!}

{She hated wearing the clothes, esp in the heat, but she sure looked GOOD in them!}

{Visiting one my best friends & her family}

{Taking on the heat like a CHAMP! We had no power, no backup, and it was HOT!}

 {Cool cutie}

{This happens just about *every* time we get in the car and it makes our hearts MELT!}

 {And this usually happens right after... SO precious!}

{So happy with his Mimi!}
{LOTS of people said he actually looks like her more than us!}

Sweet Family Moments!

G0d blessed L's labor & delivery SO much that we were checked into the hospital around 8am and were back home by 8pm the same night. Here are a few pics of little and "big" brother's first meeting and a couple others from life back in our city!!  :)  The boys are precious together and we can already see their love for each other. They are growing SO fast and we are adjusting to our new "normal". Definitely not easy, but it is WONDERFUL!!
