IT"S A BOY!


We received a referral (please see posting below titled The Adoption Process for the definition of a referral)! Hooray! Here he is, our baby boy! He was born just outside of Guatemala City, on February 21st, and weighed in at 6lbs 12oz. We are so happy and feel so blessed.

Next step in the process to bring the little guy home is DNA testing (see posting, The Adoption Process, for more info) between the birth mother and baby. This will take about a month to complete.

Thank you for your thoughts, prayers, and continued support!!
