We're Here!!

We arrived in Guatemala yesterday afternoon and Taylor came about 6:00. He came with the entire foster family!! What a surprise that was....his fm, her husband and daughter, the grandmother and the fm's sister and a nephew!! Think they may come back to celebrate his birthday!!

The past 24 hours have been wonderful! Taylor cried when the fm left but settled down soon afterwards. He is cutting 1 year molars so that isn't fun!! He slept pretty good last night and has taken several short naps today. We have loved seeing him and how he has changed since our last visit. He is scooting across the floor---in reverse though!!! He is trying to walk and talking alot more. I'm so ready to get out of pgn and bring him home with us!!!

Took an adventure to Paiz today and that was interesting...then stopped at a great Italian place for dinner!! Think daddy thought we got lost...went with another mom who is actually fostering here. It was great to see some of the city.

Thanks for all the prayers. Sorry we have no pictures to post but this takes way too long!!! Need to get back to my fella!!

Will update again soon....

Hunter is so cute, I am sure you are very happy to be with him.

Although it may have been surprising to you that the entire foster family came to drop him off surely you must realize how much they must love him and that it is certainly difficult for them to leave him.

We have been extremely fortunate to have maintained a close relationship with our daughter's foster family and although they cried and missed her dearly after we brought her home they have been comforted by phone calls updating them of her progress, pictures and letters.
