Finally!


It’s only taken me 6 months to update Belle’s website… yep, it’s finally DONE! I really put it off because I knew it would be the last. So writing it was truly bittersweet for me. I still need to do Sophie’s update, hopefully sometime before Shepherd comes home ๐Ÿ˜‰ I will keep updating Jude’s for a few more months, though. Joe and Jen have been SO wonderful to work with, I think we might be their longest running (read: most updates posted) family!
If ANYONE is looking for a website to post about their precious referral, travel, and back home journals, myadoptionwebsite is the place! We’ll be having our girls’ journeys made onto a CD, truly an incredible keepsake for them. Joe and Jen are the best to work with and they are just really GOOD people. They are incredibly conscientious, dedicated and well, our family just LOVES them! ‘Nuf said! ๐Ÿ™‚
Sooo, since some folks have asked about how Miss Isabelle has been doing as of late, feel free to read about her antics here.

    What a lovely update! And it IS bittersweet – I remember the days of getting my “fix” when you traveled to China for Isabelle.

    She is such a cutie and seems so happy! I’m glad she’s doing SO well – congratulations!
