Our girl is growing!

We received our quarterly update on Victoria with a new picture which I will post on here at some point. She was 12# in August when she arrived at VCT and now she's 22#. Growing - just wish we could watch her grow! We are thankful she is thriving in her environment. There wasn't any other big news in the update. Just that she's healthy and attending speech therapy twice a week. Her motor skills are listed as "good" too. She must be gaining some muscles on those little bones. All the better to run from her big brothers.

We are expecting our paperwork to be processed here in the US in the next week or two. We received correspondence from USCIS and they want an addendum to our home study from our social worker. Mary from Holt said we should receive approval within two weeks after the addendum is received. Then our dossier will be couriered to India and we'll wait 6-9 months for the courts to process it.....

Life has been a bit hectic here. We are in the process of refinancing our house which will lower our payment. As soon as we began the refinancing, we had a pipe break in our basement and flood part of it, so we had to quickly get some remodeling completed down there. In the midst of that, Billy fell 9' off a ladder and broke his ankle and has to be off it for 6 weeks. We are learning much through all of it and can see God at work as well. What the enemy means for destruction, we will turn around for God's glory!

Tomorrow is Logan's 5th birthday. It's bitter sweet as we believe 4 is the perfect age. Logan had a blast at his birthday party at the fire station yesterday and is looking forward to more presents tomorrow. Both boys have literally been bouncing off the walls this weekend!
