Just a few things to report....

Well guys, there's not much to post right now. We are still waiting to receive a letter from DHS stating Noah is indeed an orphan and advising us to proceed with the adoption. I phoned yesterday to our USCIS (Immigration office that operates under Department of Homeland Security)to see if they had received anything from DHS in Haiti concerning our Orphan First Petition. Unfortunately, they called this morning and said they haven't received anything yet. I'm bumbed. I was hoping it was on it's way to us. Hopefully they will have it soon and we can move on!

Also, we may not have many more posts with stories of Noah or many more pictures of him. Unfortunately, due to some complaints, Three Angels may have to ask Angela (You-You) to stop sending us those little personal updates. I'm saddened by this, as those little updates help pass the time and really create a feeling of involvement in the lives of our children, even though we are so far away. They are probably going to go to one picture a month and height/weight updates, which is better than nothing at all. I am thankful for the blessing those little updates were while we had them.

Speaking of height and weight updates, Noah is getting taller but thinner. The latest report shows him weighing 25 lbs and 98 cm tall. (98 seems awfully big, so apparently he has grown quite a bit since we were there in June.) I could tell in the latest pictures that he has begun to lose that baby look and just looks like our handsome little boy!!

I can't beleive you haven't received anything yet. That's crazy. We will keep praying.

It is sad about the whole You You situation. It's sad that one person ruins it for the rest of us. We will survive on vitals and one picture.

Hang in there. We will stick together and help each other through this drought with God's strength!!
