The Wolters Family Addition: January 2009
http://woltersfamilyaddition.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
The Wolters Family Addition. We have just adopted our son Jacob in January 2008. This blog details our journey to bring Jacob home, and now life with Jacob. Wednesday, January 21, 2009. A year ago today, a judge in Kemerovo City, Russia, officially named us parents of Jacob! And, seeing Chris in his new role as "Daddy" has also made me see him in a new light, and love him even more! Thursday, January 1, 2009. Jacob's First year Home. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Is it summer yet? Happy 8th Birthday, Sammy!

Voice of the Voiceless: Going so well
http://voicelessorphans.blogspot.com/2012/02/going-so-well.html
Voice of the Voiceless. Thursday, February 2, 2012. As poetic as it would be to leave that last post as my last post, there are still things out there to say. I didn't want to leave everyone hanging as to how Melia has been now that she's home. Let me just say that of the 4 children I have, this little girl has been the most delightful and easiest baby during the "first week home". She doesn't fit any adoption book or story that I've ever heard of. The only one who seems to having to tough go of it is ou...

Voice of the Voiceless: October 2011
http://voicelessorphans.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Voice of the Voiceless. Friday, October 14, 2011. We got our LOA! The LOA is a letter of acceptance from China that moves us one step closer to bringing Melia home! On Monday we can now send in a form to the USCIS for another approval from our government to bring Melia home. Our agency estimates travel to China in 3 MONTHS! That means we could be meeting our little one and a half year old right after the first of the year! Our life is going to be turning upside down very soon! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Voice of the Voiceless. Thursday, February 16, 2012. Often times we hear her singing through the monitor for 10 or 15 minutes before she falls asleep! Wow One great kid. Lately, she's been trying so hard to talk. She wants to tell us so many things, but can't quite do it. But with the help of baby signs and lots of pointing, we've been figuring it out. Posted by Ryan and Katie. Wednesday, February 8, 2012. Took our first trip to the pool! Posted by Ryan and Katie. Thursday, February 2, 2012. An additiona...
