What goes best with new pictures?

News that Ellie has our last name!!!!!!!!!

The attorney was able to obtain her new birth certificate AND passport (everyone with me: Go Pedro Go!), so we are ready to be submitted to the Embassy on January 2nd, the Wonderful Wednesday holiday we now celebrate at our house! :) I think this news has me more pumped than our OUT of PGN call! God has been beyond faithful to provide in every step of this process, even when I doubt!

Hi there. I love following your blog. We are in the process of adopting our second son from Guatemala and his birth family is from Patulul too. Have you been able to find any information about Patulul for Ellie? I have been having a difficult time finding any facts/info about Patulul for Nicolas. Please feel free to email me at hurdjl@yahoo.com. Thanks a bunch. We hope your precious girl is OUT and home soon. There is nothing better than that feeling. Every time I hold Owen (our 16 month old from Guatemala), I feel like the most blessed eprson in the world.
