We're Adopted!

I can't believe it's been over a month since I have posted anything! March was a whirl wind of activity. First, the week before spring break is always crazy at school. Secondly, March is Iditarod time and this town is extra crazy and busy this week. Lastly, (and most important!) we adopted our son Michael. Michael has been with us for two years and we were asked to consider adoption over a year ago. It's taken that long! Someday, I'll have to blog our story but for now, we are just kicking back and enjoying being a family.  Here we all are at court on "Family Day".
Michael Leo Marvin officially joined the family at 11:11 a.m. on March 9th, weighing 40 pounds and measuring 43 inches long. =)

He really is happy. He is sucking on a piece of candy which makes him look as if he just realized, "Oh crap, I'm stuck with these people for the rest of my life."  Marvin to the third power!
