It's hard to believe but our girls are 14 months old today. We had the second of our four social worker visits this afternoon. All went well and the visit was brief and easy. After two more visits, we can officially go to court to make us a "legal" family.

Here's an update of our girls...

After speaking with many people, it seems we are incredibly fortunate to have babies that sleep 12 hours a night. There has not been one single night where Morgan and I have had to get up. They have both adjusted very well, considering they used to sleep on the floor in Korea from midnight to 6:00 a.m. They continue to take 2 naps during the day too. They take a 90 minute nap in the morning and a 60-90 minute nap in the afternoon.

Their favorite foods are any kind of vegetable or fruit, pot stickers, mac 'n cheese, wheat rolls, turkey, mashed potatoes, and cheerios. They are really good eaters and eat just about anything. Lately, they've been entertaining us by repeating what we say and do. Surprisingly, they follow directions well and know not to touch certain things around the house. We are amazed by how much they can actually understand us. They are so much fun and it's so cool to watch them grow and learn. We are constantly running to get our camera to capture great moments throughout the day.

Faith is extremely easy-going. She is quickly learning to share and it's very sweet to witness her share toys with her sister. Faith is both affectionate and independent. She loves to give hugs and kisses yet she can play by herself or with her sister for a long time. These days, she is talking up a storm and makes us laugh out loud with all the sounds she makes. Yesterday, she also took about 7 steps. I guess that's called walking! She can climb down from the couch on her own and has good balance. It takes her no time at all to feel comfortable around people. As you can tell from the pictures, she loves the water and is pretty fearless when it comes to water and heights. She has also been pretty vocal lately about what she wants. Faith is a smart and sweet little girl and has the cutest dimples when she smiles.

Grace is easy-going too. Right now, she definitely has the younger sister characteristics. She is not as quick to share but she is learning. She has the sweetest, softest little singing voice and she loves to dance (sway) when she hears music. Grace is quite the little charmer and has a smile that will melt your heart. She is a little more shy at first with people but she warms up in no time. Grace is feminine, gentle and soft in her movements. She is also taking several steps and stands on her tippy-toes. She often repeats what her sister does and also loves affection, especially from her Daddy.

Our beautiful daughters are more than we could have ever dreamed or hoped for and we are enjoying each day with them immensely. They each have different personalities and we are having so much fun discovering their unique gifts and characteristics. We are amazed by God's provision and think He really outdid Himself! Yes, life has changed for us but we were so ready for it. Our children have enriched our lives in a way that only they could.
Our hearts are more than full.
