Yes Jen. It was twin girls. BMom had Anorxia. BMom lost the twins when she was 6 months or so along. A couple weeks later we matched with Cylie.

WOW!! I can't believe you remembered that!! LOL

Always willing to brag!

Two kids to brag about!

Here is our son, Aidan, our Haitian angel. He has been home since October 2003 and is almost 28 months old. This picture was taken Friday after playing in the rain and puddles in the backyard. He had a grand old, splashy time!

And our daughter, Makena, our domestic adoption sweetie-pie. She was one year old on Jan 28th! This picture was taken during a family date at a lovely park by the bay.

Thanks for looking, and thanks to everyone else for sharing!

Happy mom to 2 daughters, one by birth the other by adoption

Adoption journey: homestudy completed 7/04, signed with facilitator 11/04, matched 12/04, daughter born 2/05, adoption final 4/05

Fost/Adopt journey: legal risk, preadoptive placement of V 10/08, state went to reuniting 1/09, V back w/family 7/09, state seeking custody again 11/09 - too late for us.

9/09 preadoptive match made from photolisting with boy T, will meet in person 10/09, placement potentially 11/09
