Can you believe it has been 6 months? Yes, 6 months since we met our girls for the first time in that wood paneled room on an upper level floor in a big building in the small city (6 million people, give or take a few) of Nanchang. Wow, we cannot believe it either.
It is truly amazing to see the transformation (and I am not talking about just the girls) over the past months. These little sweeties have learned so much, picked up so much and have transfomed our lives, for the better of course. You can read our previous posts for stories of their love, laughter and learning. Even when we are at our wits end, we leave each situation thankful for the opportunity the Lord has given us.
Ok, enough mushy stuff. Take a look at the photos. There is at least one photo from each month we have been a family. As you will see, the more things change, the more they seem to stay the same....see below...
The night we met...Abby not wearing any pants after we returned to the hotel room and they were fascinated with everything! (Look at her tiny little legs! Not so much any more!)
Here the girls are enjoying their first cruise in their new double stroller, a cultural experience, the Indy Auto Show. Ohh, remember Abby's first major boo-boo? Hopefully, her last!
The Huggies box photo. It makes us sad that they cannot fit into Huggies boxes like they used to...they are growing too fast!
Look at those cute piggy tails! Abby is cracking up over something... :)
The girls enjoying a "warm" March afternoon by taking a cruise in their big red wagon...
The girls enjoying a warm April afternoon in their playhouse!
The girls today (literally, we took this photo today). Note the similarities...Abby with no pants (and Laney has none since Abby took hers off). But note the difference...look at those big smiles and happy faces! They are happy little girls and we are happy little (big?) parents!
We are so blessed. God is good...all the time!
Thanks for stopping by. Please check out our My Adoption Website site soon. Rett will be adding a post there! (Hopefully by the weekend!) www.myadoptionwebsite.com/laneyandabby

Happy 6 months!!
That last picture is awesome! Happy 6 month Family Birthday! (You can celebrate as many of these as you want, I think!)
I so remember getting up early one Sunday morning and seeing those photos of the girls! How I cried! When I saw your first photo on today's post, I nearly got teary eyed all over again! What a wonderful addition they are to our family. How we prayed and prayed. I look forward to the NEXT six months, and many, many months and years to come to watch my cutie cousins grow!
