SPRINGTIME'S HERE?


Another baby picture for all of you to enjoy. This one is important to us because it's the first time we've gotten to see the little guys bare legs. Normally, he is dressed in many layers of clothes (that's just the way they do things at the orphanage). For the past week, he has been in no less than 3 layers of clothes-leggings, a little jumpsuit, a pullover outfit, and occasionally a heavy sweater on top. They believe that the children should be dressed this way. We have been told that when we finally get to take him home, we need to be sure and dress him warmly or all the older women will yell at us in the streets. (In fact, one day when they brought out this heavy sweater for him, the worker asked if Logan needed one because he was only in a single turtleneck shirt. It was quite funny as we had to explain that he was fine) Well, yesterday the temperatures climbed up to the 50 degree mark. So we got to see him and he was in only a single suit, with no leggings. What a cute little leg he had under all those clothes. Enjoy the picture. Hopefully we will get our court date next week and finally get to take him home. When that happens, we will finally be able to post a full facial shot. Until then, keep praying for our court date to take place this coming week.

  3. I know very well what you mean about the old ladies telling you a child is not dressed warm enough. When I was living in Germany and took my baby girl out in just a fleece jumpsuit in winter, they were very bold and came up to me saying "Kalt! Kalt!" (cold) So be prepared!! Enjoying your journaling very much!!

  5. Jodi-Sorry to hear that. Don't fret because after that day he's been back in his leggings. That boy needs some serious sun exposure.
    Rosemary-as strict as they were, I think these girls are more so, plus I think one or two of them might be able to kick my butt.
    Nancy-Logan says "yes, but only because we're away from home and that makes it taste better. But Wilson's has the better ice cream." Boy could I go for a Wilson's double-scoop right now!

  7. YES! I really miss their ice cream cones. I want one badly. Heck, who am I kidding I'll take a glass of freezing cold 1% milk at this point!
