We Needed Him
This week, we celebrated one year as a family of five. On November 14, 2016, Brooks joined our family in China, and we will never be the same.

This sweet boy has been home seven months! (Okay, seven months and some change. Summer is hard.)

Post-Adoption: 2 Months
Two months ago, we met and became parents to the most amazing little boy in a musty conference room in Hangzhou, China. I still pinch myself sometimes when I realize just how lucky I am to be called his mama!

One month ago, we became this precious little man’s parents!To see our Gotcha Day video, click: https://youtu.be/AnM8JuK8ZGU This month was such an absolute blur. We spent half of it in China, half of it battling jet lag, and have spent the last week or so “attempting” to create a new normal and a routine. I emphasizeContinue reading “Post-Adoption: 1 Month”
