Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!! Darrell and I have so much to be thankful for this year. We are so blessed to have Riley in our lives and are so incredibly thankful to the Lord for allowing us to be his parents. The beginning of this year was extremely hard for Darrell and I. I lost my dad on Jan. 2nd and Darrell lost his mom on Feb. 3rd. This is our first holiday season with out them. We miss them so much and wish that they could have met Riley. We know that they are looking down on us from Heaven and smiling. Even though we are missing them and are sad they they are not with us we are also so happy that we have Riley. We have enjoyed our first Thanksgiving with him and we are looking forward to his first Christmas. We hope that each of you have taken time to thank the Lord for what he has blessed you with. Enjoy the video of Riley laughing. It's the first time he really laughed and it's the sweetest sound. Blessings to you and your family. P.S. I sound like a crazy person in this video. Us mom's will do anything to get our kids to laugh. hahaha!!!

My baby is 15 weeks old





Time had flown by since we got Riley. I can't believe he's already 3 months old and counting. He's getting so big. He is smiling a lot and cooing a lot. We are really starting to see his personality. I think I fall more in love with him everyday. He's so amazing and I am so blessed to be his mom. Here are some cute pictures of him.

Boston Riley Fauvel




Well as most of you know we have a new addition in our family. On Sept. 22nd. we adopted Boston Riley Fauvel. He was born on August 8th. He is now almost 3 months old. He is so amazing and Darrell and I feel so blessed to have him in our lives. We are still waiting on our China adoption. It looks like it will be sometime in 2010. We still have our blog for our China adoption but wanted to create a blog for our family so that you could follow along and see how our family grows. We will post lots of pictures of Riley. These pictures are from Riley's first Halloween.
