All the News...

I know, I know, we are lazy bloggers! So here is your news fix, as well as new photos.

Our Legal Status:
Still in St. Louis. Looks like we will remain here through the weekend now, as we haven't heard yet from NC if the adoption is approved by them. Hopefully, that will happen Monday, and we can come home then.

Avery's Status:
She is growing like crazy! Sleeping less, filling out, eating like a horse. She is still perfect, and the cutest baby ever seen. :) She likes to cuddle, and seems to like us a lot.

Parents' Status:
Can we be whiny? We are bored, tired and wanting to be home in a big way. Renee actually wants to be doing laundry with her own washer and dryer, and Shawn actually wants to mow the yard. Anything to get out of this hotel! You can only sightsee so much....

Photo Explanations:
The one outside of the Family Court is from Tuesday, when Missouri approved the adoption.

The weird artwork ones are from a sculpture park we visited.

The cute baby photos are of Avery, the cutest baby ever.

The one of Renee and Avery next to the big stainless steel wall is our second visit to the most famous landmark in her birth city, just to prove she was there.

The one of her praying just shows that Avery has her priorities straight. :) She did that on her own, with no parental prompting.

Hope everyone is well, and be rooting for us to come home soon!

  1. We sure are rooting for you to come home! Can't imagine how hard it is to be in a hotel trying to care for a baby - sounds like you're doing a pretty great job of it though. We sure will miss seeing you guys and Avery at Freedom! Keep posting pics :) I'm sure she's changed a lot already! Love from the McCoys :)
