Cupcakes





Daniel and Michael loved the cupcakes I made (Martha Stewart chocolate chip cupcakes with Hershey icing). They were delicious and Daniel got his with sprinkles.

Blizzard of 2010



We officially had 32 inches of snow at Dulles Airport. Michael has been shoveling forever with a little help from me. We lost power for 4 hours which was scary since it is so cold and Daniel had a cold. We did manage to light our gas stove with a match without burning down the house.






You might notice that Daniel has sprinkles in his hand. He has been working on me all weekend for cupcakes so I am going to make some fancy chocolate chip cupcakes with sprinkles while he takes a nap today!




We went to Philadelphia last weekend to visit Barbara, Paul, Christopher and to meet baby Nicole! She is such a sweetheart! Daniel had a great time with Christopher and keeps talking about him:)

"I want to ride my tricycle"

Daniel rode his tricycle to the park and back yesterday! He has learned how to peddle at school this winter and we final had a nice day to go outside. He is so cute when he has these bursts of energy on his bike. What a big boy.

Cousin Hayden's First Birthday

































We had a great time at Hayden's first birthday party! He loved the wrapping and tissue paper the most. Plus he got to eat cake for the first time.

Daniel ate fruit and icing - what a meal! Daniel said "Happy Birthday" to Hayden and tried to get everyone to put on their party hats. He was very happy to play with Will and Jason. I think they all had a chicken nugget going up and down the elevator in the garage!

About Me

We first heard about Gladney Center for Adoption in January of 2005 when we met with Pastor Stephen and Paula. In March of 2005 we attended an orientation at Gladney in Fort Worth, Texas. We adopted Daniel on September 12, 2007! Now we are waiting for a special child to complete our family.
