Introducing our new son...

Hello all!

Haven't been on in a while. Our plans to foster changed when we got the call that we were to receive the referral of my son's bio sibling, (then) soon to be born.

Well, we got the call on the 27th of September that our new son, Mario, was born on September 25th. He was 6lbs 14oz (same as his brother Anderson) and was 18 1/2 inches long. We went to Guatemala and visited him and kept him all last week. It will still be a few months before his papers are clear and he comes home but I wanted to introduce him to you all. He is such a sweet little baby and we are so proud. His nick name has been "Rio", started by my mom and Anderson calls him "Yee yo".

Wishing you all the best in your journies of fostering.
