That's how the kids say birthday. Well, that's how Justin and Natalie say it, Lexi just yabbers a few syllables and smiles! (See video below!) After some birthday pancakes we headed over to Baba and Grandpa's house for a little pool party and lunch. To Scott's absolute delight, one of Justin's gifts from the grandparents was a Cubs hat, complete with a new glove, bat, ball and tee. The kids had a blast and Justin keeps telling us how he hit a ball over the fence... at least that's what I think he's saying! Cousin Melanie blessed us with a super delicious birthday dinner. (Thanks Mel! It was yummy!) Bath, Books, Bed, and another day down. Another day of this new life.
This new life.
It's different.
It's hard.
But it's full of grace.
It's a blessed life.
Hey?! Did he say something about Big Bird's testicle????

Between the birthday parties and the swimming pool, I don't think your kids could be happier! The pictures and videos prove it without a doubt! It is so exciting seeing your children transition so well to life here. Of course there will be ups and downs but you both should be so proud. God has truly blessed you all!
I love it! Thanks for sharing the video : ) Loved hearing everyone's voice. Love, Melanie
Alex and I were listening over and over and we couldn't figure out what he was saying in Russian except for "mahlinky" which means small. This only adds to the hilarity...
"Big Bird has small testicles." ROFL!!!!!
Thanks for sharing the blog. We've enjoyed watching your journey and reminiscing on our own and how far we've come.
