We are on our way to find our missing piece, again. We've been thinking about this for a while, our 3 year old, "G", has been very persistent on asking where his "little brother" is, and all our paperwork is signed and complete so here we go! If you have never met us please read our short bio under "Our Adoption Journey." Here is a pictures to recap from when I blogged last to now. I only took 3 years off of blogging, no biggie right? :)
