Short for "Cinnamon Toast Crunch," a combination of my Mama and my Daddy's bloggy names! I am a little man who likes to eat, sleep, smile, and go for rides in my really sweet stroller wheels! Sometimes I fuss a bit because of the bubbles in my tummy, but Mama thinks I am one pretty easy going dude! Click on my picture to learn more about me! :o)
"C.C."
Short for "Cinnamon Crunch," my most favorite breakfast bagel treat! I am a 30-something, totally Type-A, slightly OCD, yet somehow cluttered woman of FAITH. I love JESUS, my husband, my family, and my SON!!! I value peace, yet appreciate what God has taught me through the trying and sometimes painful circumstances of life in this fallen world. I enjoy writing (especially blogging), reading, watching tv, and playing with our dogs. My continual prayer for this blog is that God will help me to share the experiences of my life in a way that would minister to others and bring glory to Him!
Short for "Double Toasted" ~the way he likes his bagels prepared~ D.T. is my very handsome, European-born, multi-talented singer, chef, motorcycle loving, theologian husband! Like everything else in his life, he enjoys a plain or sesame bagel very "well done!" I am so blessed that God brought Double T all the way across the world to be with me, and I look forward to growing very old together!
Time in Romania
Bucharest
Goldie Marie
Our 4 year old pound puppy. Also affectionately known as Golda, Maria, Mitzi, Itsy, Itsy Bitsy, and anything else Double T can come up with! :-) Goldie loves to play with squeaky balls, race around the back yard, chew a good bone, bark until she gets what she wants, and ignore her annoying little puppy brother.
Benjamin Henry
Our 2 year old "Jackabee" (1/2 jack russel, 1/2 beagle) puppy that was born on Super Bowl Sunday 2008 . Also affectionately known as Ben, Bennie, Boo-boo, Moo-moo, Mushu, Mushulika, Mushulescu, and once again, anything else Double T can come up with! Ben loves to attack his older puppy sister, howl, chew sticks, pull stuffing out of toys, watch TV, and curl up in anyone's lap for a good snooze.
Sooooo happy for you guys!!! I've been praying you and the mama out there that would be giving you your child for a looooooong time!! God is sooooo good!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures and story with us! My parents adopted me when I was ten and my husband and I have 3 (bio) boys and will hopefully be adopting in the near future!! Welcome to your forever family, little one!!!
I cried when I read this! I am SO incredibly happy that you have a little one to share your lives with! Thank you so much for sharing the link to your story. WOW! What an amazing gift you have been given.... :)
I have been out of the blogging world for over a year and a half. I used to creep on your blog and you used to creep on mine. I started a new blog today, relocated yours...and started shedding some very happy tears. GOD IS SO GOOD!!! I am so glad He has answered both our prayers.
I will leave you with the one piece of advice I now share with other new moms....read Let the Children Come - Along the Infant Way. My Boo started sleeping through the night at four months, and it was such a blessing to me...and my marriage. ;)
