Exactly One Year Ago...



we picked up Tegegn! What a wonderful day it was and one that we will never forget. Tegegn has come so far from the day we met him. We were able to see all of his milestones and we are so fortunate to be his parents! We truly miss Ethiopia and we look forward to the day when we can go back to Tegegn's birth country and visit our host family. Tegegn is beginning to talk and we really have fun seeing his personality shine through. He is a daddy's boy, but he loves his mama. He doesn't really like going to bed because he would rather be playing...if only he knew that sleep was a necessity. He loves trains, cars, trucks and planes. He is a busy boy. We have so much fun with him and we are so lucky to celebrate his GOTYA day today with his favorites...ice cream, tater tots, fish, cheesecake and juice. We love you Tegester!
