We have a LID

that is a Log In Date - meaning our stuff has been logged in China! What does that mean now ... I have no idea! ? I do know we are one step closer to Max!

Life is moving along

Where has the month gone?? We have been busy and time has just flown by. Sorry for the lack of updates and photo's. Here are a couple of highlights from the last couple of weeks.

We went to check on Grandpa and he is doing better. He could still use your prayers. Mac loved helping Grandpa with his food, helping push him in his chair and push the button to help him get out of bed. She likes to sing, "You are my sunshine" to him and tells him some lame knock, knock jokes. He always humors her and gives a good laugh.

Mac also had her school trip to the pumpkin patch - I almost got a little teary eyed when we got there and I thought - Oh, it is her first field trip - [I need to get more sleep]. She had a great time and I wish I had more pictures but I ran out of battery in my camera ... oh, well. The funny part was her out in the field trying to find the right pumpkin to take home. She looked around and found the tiniest one - I encouraged her to find a bigger one, but she would have nothing to do with it. Sooo, we will have to make our THIRD trip to the patch this year to get pumpkins that are large enough to carve.

It's a BOY!!!

We are pleased to announce that we will be adding a wonderful little boy to our family this spring! Please meet our new son and slightly younger brother to McKaden ... you see, we are going to have "twins" in our home!

Max AiGang

Born 1/25/05

Mao Ming City, Guangdong, China

McKaden will be 3 in November and Max will be 3 in January ... are we crazy? We just don't know?!

Will you join us in prayer everyday for our son? With McKaden I think I was more worried about the money and prayed that God would provide for us - and of course He did! With Max I feel more concerned about how this little guy is going to adjust, that he is safe and healthy.

Last thing - we must rename our blog ... any catchy titles? Missing Max?

Friends and Farms

We had a great time this weekend with friends who came to visit! This is McKaden and her friend Jack- who is 6 months younger and a head taller! They played great together and had a blast at the pumpkin patch.
