His best pirate face!!
Well I guess we officially started the paper chase for #2 today. We sent in our application and application fee to our agency. We will be using the same agency we did for Taylor, www.hfsadopt.org . We have our home study and physicals scheduled and when we get our packet then we can really dig in to all the paperwork. The process in China has changed a lot but for us it is still the best fit. We cannot wait to go back to China!! When you've been given the greatest gift of your life in this country you can't help but have such a love in your heart for the country and the people. We expect to have a referral in approximately 2-6 months and we expect to be in China in 9-12 months!! We are so excited!!

When not being filmed he will read this book front to finish but you'll see he gets a little distracted with the camera being there, but hopefully you'll get the point. Just click on the link below...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghv3WCB6TVA...the last thing he says is "chilren", he kind of skipped to the end. Too cute!!

This Zoo is a free zoo in Chicago on Lake Michigan. It was beautiful and we really enjoyed it.

They just happen to be having a Korean festival at the Children's Museum which was really cool since James is half Korean. Taylor is modeling the traditional Korean Hanbok.
Our hotel was right around the corner of the Magnificent Mile and was affordable and nice.

Last week we took a little mini vacation to Chicago for a few nights. It is somewhere that James and I have wanted to visit. We really enjoyed it and I already have a list of things I would like to do next time we go.
