Just in case...

Just in case no one saw the new pictures of the babies, they are in the slide show :) The Baby shower is this Sunday so I will be posting pictures of that on here. Thank you so much to Aunt Melissa and Aunt Renee! We got the shower gifts today! That was so sweet of you both!

Next week :(

The Ethiopian courts have been delayed in reopening until next Monday :( Our caseworker told us that it should be only be a few weeks until we hear from them about our travel date though :) Maybe if I try not to think about it, the time will go by faster! P.S This is only my 60th post! It seems like I have posted way more than that!

My NEW ( and improved) Slide Show!

I added new pictures from the Daileaders to this one! Hopefully it is ok now ;) They are sending us video of them too (yay!!) so I will post that on my blog sometime. (maybe even on the slideshow, we'll see :) Thank you again to the D's!

Kolfe Center pictures

These are pictures that another Gladney family took of the Kolfe Center (the orphanage for older boys) that we raised all the money for. You can see why they need it. (They are actually building a library and I will post the information about that later.)

Slide show coming soon!!!

I am in the process of making a slide show of all the pictures we have of the kids (so far) for my blog, so check back in a few days for that! That is all for now...courts open day after tomorrow!!! We found out that we may not hear from them until the end of October or beginning of November , but we are praying that it will be alot sooner then that! Also, we are having our baby shower this Sunday! Thanks so much to the H's!! (I can't wait!)

The Daileaders rock!

The Daileaders are in Ethiopia right now and they have taken pictures of the girls for us. They did not get to meet Josiah because he was getting a haircut :( I can not wait to see the pictures! Thank you Daileaders!

over $1000!!!

The charter school raised over $1000 for the Kolfe center in Ethiopia! (The Kolfe center is building a library and the school held a fundraiser for them) I am so excited and I pray that this money will be able to help them out wuth getting the library up and running. Thank You Franklin Academy!!! (6 more days!)

8 more days until they open!

Nothing really interesting going on here. Just school,school and more school! STILL waiting for the courts to open! (only a week from tomorrow!) Good luck to the Daileaders! They left for Ethiopia today to bring home Sophie. We are praying for you guys! I can't wait until it is our turn to leave! Actually, there is something new! A Charter school in our town held a fundraiser for the orphanage and we are going to leave in a minute to pick up the checks. We have no idea how much they are for but I am so grateful and hope that the money will be able to help the orphanage a lot! I will post again later once I know how much we raised. ~Ellie~
