Joe's Birthday Package

Joe,

We hope you got your birthday package in time for your birthday. It is filled with goodies that I hope you will love. Moreover it is filled with all of the hugs and kisses we could squeeze into a 1 gallon ziplock bag.

Love,
Daddy Mama and Big brother Sam

Happy Birthday Joe...

Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday Dear Joseph, Happy Birthday to you...Wish you were here, Little Man.

Mama is so proud to share a birthday with you, you have made this day so joyful. I cannot wait until we can celebrate our day together, birthday buddy. Until then, here is our love and wishes for a 1st birthday to remember. How lucky can one little boy be? A birthday in Guatemala and one in the good ol' USA - you know I won't be able to resist a party once you are home!

Joe's got a new look!

I have said it before, but these latest update pictures confirm it...we are going to have our hands full. All of the things that Sam has never thought of...Joe is gonna do not once but 3 or 4 times over!
These pics make my heart full of hope, this little man will be ours soon. He looks so happy and so full of mischeif - I cannot wait until it is all mine!
Did anyone notice that I missed Joe's first haircut? He does look mighty handsome...I must admit that I am sad that I wasn't there. There is always a first haircut here, right?
Now come on Joe - it looks like you are on the move - make you move on home to the US!
