Finally A Post!

It

It has been quite a while since I have posted on the blog. The main reason is the pictures were not uploading correctly and due to some updates made to the computer I had to learn how to navigate certain things and I kind of gave up for a while. The boys are certainly growing. They are getting ready for Santa Claus! Keaton had more surgery in November for a pharyngeal flap repair. He recovered very quickly and got to spend a week with grandma "Dee Dee". He got to visit Santa without his brother. We have go for another visit with them both this week. Java June had overgrown from the expected 12 to 15 lbs to 23 lbs !!! We love her!  Enjoy the pics. I hope to continue more frequent updates.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM SPIDER MAN AND A TRANSFORMER!
Keaton and Kanah enjoyed getting into their costumes and going trick or treating at our downtown stroll. They were so tuckered out by the time we got back to the car with the sacks of candy they were both asleep before we drove back down our main street (it only has 3 traffic lights) LOL!

Kanah Turns 3!

 Kanah turn 3 today! He has grown up so much this past year. He found his forever family, learned to speak English, and is now potty trained! We celebrated with his requested favorite dinner "Chicken Pot Pie", and cupcakes. We will have his Spider Man cake this weekend to celebrate with family. He and Keaton have become great brothers! ( sorry about the pics, there is something happening when I download them to the blog and they are discolored???)

Keaton Celebrated 2 year Family Day on the 13th!

Keaton celebrated his 2nd Family Day on September 13th! I am having issues with our pictures and had to down load them into our external hard drive so I can not put any old pics on here to show his Gotcha Day pic in the post until we re-lead them back onto the computer. Keaton has been a total joy to have in our family! We love him so much!

Many first's!

Keaton started Pre-school this week! Keaton & Kanah both graduated from diapers to underwear this week! Keaton went for his first salon haircut! MANY FIRSTS!
Keaton has always freaked out getting his hair cut. We think it is because they shaved his head as a baby in China. He was a very good boy for our friend to cut his hair in the salon. Both boys are so excited to wear underwear! Major changes this week!

Swinging and Laughing!

Summer 2012 Fun! Look at me I am a big boy!

It was one year ago August 1st Kanah was placed in our arms as our second son! Wow, what a difference a year makes! He has grown and changed so much. If you have been following along you have read how malnourished he was when we met him , and was so weak he could not stand or walk for the first few days with us.  He has gained at least 10 pounds, grown from size 9 month clothes to now 18 months to 2 T, running and climbing all over, talking up a storm, and gives his brother Keaton a run for his money! He is happy, full of life and loves his forever family! Especially his MOM! LOL

Here are some first day pics, and some recent to see how much Kanah has changed and grown!
