Not much to report....

Well, we thought we were home free on the Homestudy... until we received the news a few weeks ago that we needed to have FBI fingerprints done, before the social worker would release it.... If only we had known this in January.... Ugggghhhh...
So needless to say, we are back in a holding pattern as far as our new addition goes.
Some of you already know that we have an older waiting child in mind... She is a lovely girl that we met in Addis, and every second that we have to wait, there is a chance that another family will snatch her up.
I guess that if its meant to be, it will happen, but its frustrating just the same.

Leyton had his first outdoor soccer match with his German team last weekend... Here are a few pics of my Deutsche fussballer.... Leyton is #3, with white long sleeves...









This week, I finally broke down and made myself a new sling for Ava.... After just over a year of use... and I used it every single day! It was starting to get worn where I adjust it.... so it was time for a new one.... Ava kept trying to wear mine, and was tripping over it... so I decided to whip one up for her.... She loves it! Its really cute to see her walking around carrying her baby...



In other news, just a few more weeks till we are back in the States, for some R & R... And for those of you wondering whats up with Jon... he is enjoying a little R & R of his own... He was selected for 4 days in Sunny Qatar... We talked with him yesterday, and he seems to be enjoying a little downtime. With just over 100 days left in his tour... we are looking forward to having him home for good!
