Katie, Tim & Cale Nester...

...would love it if you would follow along as we record our adoption journey. We feel blessed to be called to adopt a son from Ethiopia!
About our journey:
- We requested "either" gender, 0-18 months.
- We received our referral of Megersa on Nov 5, 2009; he was 2 months old.
- Megersa's name is pronounced "Meh-gur-sah."
- Our case was submitted on Dec 18, 2009 and our court date was Jan 27, 2010. We were fortunate to pass court on the first try!
- Tim's mom and I left for Ethiopia on March 8, 2010 for an Embassy appointment of March 10, 2010. We passed!
- Megersa met the rest of his family in the US 3.13.10.
- When we re-adopt him, his full legal name will be Megersa Jace Nester.

Less Words Wednesday

I am totally off on my days. Yesterday I thought it was Wednesday and today I think it's Thursday. But it's not...and as a result - you get to see some more pictures that I think are great!
It has been snowing off and on for 2 days. Cale and I have been having TONS of fun in the snow. Making footprints, eating snow, shoveling, Me making a snowman, Cale knocking it's head off....all the good things in life! Here is a summary of our fun:We also continued the cookie baking I had started on Monday. Today Cale was very helpful! He helped me make the dough, roll it, dump sprinkles on it, and push the cookie cutters in.
Observe:
You know what's weird though? All that tempting prep work and my kid wouldn't even eat the finished product. It's not really a surprise to me. He dislikes home-baked cookies. Actually, come to think of it, the only cookies I've seen him eat, and like, are oreos. Doesn't get that trait from Me or his Daddy! What an oddball, huh? Oh well, we had lots of fun! :)
