Welcome!

This blog began as we documented our adoption of our third child, Caleb. It is now an eclectic journal of our often amusing lifestyle with 4 young children.

We do try to "keep it simple" because our lives are obviously busy enough! We try to hold true to what we firmly believe is the most important: family, friends, and faith.

We hope you enjoy our everyday happenings!

Some good news???

As far as we know, there are 3 other families that are stuck in the same Birth Certificate mess that we are. One of the other families' attorney did go up to Sayaxché to file an Amparo (appeal of the mayor's decision to withold the birth certificate), and today the family learned that their attorney has the new birth certificate! So the filing of the Amparo worked - and worked very quickly.

So now we just need our attorney to get up to Sayaxché and do the same thing. And, hopefully we will have the same result. Hang on Caleb, we're coming!!!!!!

Hey guys - we are praying that your lawyer will file that thing next week and you'll be getting a new BC shortly! Our BC had to registered....bmom never registered it, so it had to be done. That's all that we needed and it was only supposed to take a week but it took 5 1/2!!! UGH! But now we're going back in HOORAY!! Hang in there, it's coming!! Much love - Bamagirl!!
