Brett's first trip to the Fair
We took Brett to the Fair last night and had a great time. Brett LOVED all the animals and would run from one animal to the next. He really isn't afraid of animals (even though he has already been bit by a horse and a duck). I think that having Georgia has helped him not be afraid of animals. The rides, on the other hand, he could have done without. We tried several rides- two of which we had to get off because he was crying so hard. He ended up loving the carousel and- of all things- the huge slide. It doesn't look like he liked it from the pictures, but when we got down he would say "Side- More".
This is what we did most of the night- chase Brett around.
Trying to see the goats.
Look what I found momma-sheep-baaaa.
Looking at the chick.
Petting the chick- he loved them!
Feeding the kangaroos
Wow!
Look at my sweet boy- I just love that face.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!
Waving to Grammie (who he now calls Ma) and Daddy Bob.
Climbing up the slide- it was quite the climb.
Riding down the slide.
Trying to ride the little car- as you can tell he did not like this- the man stopped the ride before it even made one loop. Poor little guy.

2 years
Yesterday marked 2 years since our dossier was logged into the Chinese system. It is called your Log In Date- or LID in the adoption community. Our LID was September 5, 2006. The people who have a LID of Feb. 9, 2006 or earlier now have their babies- so we still have 7 more months of people "standing in line" in front of us. That doesn't sound like a long time, but they are only getting through 2 months a year, so we still have a long wait ahead of us. But each day is a day closer to Kate- and we now have 2 years behind us. Let's hope we don't have more than 2 years ahead of us. (Not the best pictures but the best we could get- our little guy does not like to sit still these days!)

I heart my family!
Just looking at this picture makes me smile. I am so blessed- an amazing husband, an adorable little boy, and the sweetest dog on earth. I am so thankful for them. They make every day the best day of my life. Thank you Mrs. Petrella- without you none of this would be possible. I thank the Lord for you all the time! (for those of you who don't know- Mrs. Petrella set Brian and I up on our first date)
