Happy New Year!!!

So the holidays interfered with blogging....not that we're the best bloggers anyway. I respect those people who can be witty and resourceful and actually write something that people want to read every other day! Way to go, BlogStars!

Our unofficial number:


Go ahead; pick one...okay, two numbers. Somewhere between 1 and 23. That's about what we know for sure right now.

So, no updates yet....we do know there have been a spectacular number of referrals recently, probably putting us in the teens on the girl waitlist. Jana is an excellent blogstalker....which is a slippery slope: it sometimes causes more confusion, but she's determined to figure out where we are on the waiting list. We're so excited to meet our little girl!

Christmas was excellent this year. We had a great time. Paisley and Majil really enjoyed themselves. The best part was seeing Paisley comprehend the reason for Christmas and getting just as much enjoyment GIVING gifts as she did receiving them. I am a proud papa.

Yep, those are matching pajamas. We rocked 'em right away.

Paisley and her first Barbie..."Barbie and the Diamond Castle"

They're still singing Away in a Manger...like, right now. At 10:30 p.m. Mind you, they've been in bed since 7:30. But when I go upstairs to quiet them down, Paisley says "But Daddy, we're praising JESUS!" Go ahead and sing until your tired little self lands on the pillow, sweetheart. Just be sure to harmonize with your sister....gotta figure out somehow to put your mom and I through retirement...

So...any New Year's Resolutions?

Hey guys, we are officially #19 girls/#11 boys so maybe you're right behind us?? Although the brag site has you right above us ... either way, it'll be good to follow your progress :)

I noticed your blog link on facebook so I thought I would drop by...congrats on the adoption process and blessings to you both. I've heard the process can be very taxing but it looks like you guys have it down.
Anyway I had to comment because we did matching jammies on Christmas morning too - my husband was also a good sport about it, makes for great photos :)
Your girls are just beautiful! We are in Lincoln too so perhaps someday we can catch up and get our familes together for a visit.
Happy New Year to you and yours! I hope you all had a very Blessed Holiday Season.- Carmen (Bailey) Bachle
