OH MY GOSH, WE REALLY ARE THE FRASER FIVE!!!

We are super stoked to let all of you know we are the proud parents of a sweet little baby boy. He is only 3 weeks old and cuter than cute. We were able to get approval from a wonderful international adoption pediatrician and we went ahead and accepted the referral. The court system is complicated and we are hopeful that just maybe we might pass through court this month. If that is the case, we would travel in August/September to pick him up. If we do not make it through(which is more likely), it will be Thanksgiving time before we get to hold our sweet little guy. We are so thankful and truly praise God for this sweet gift from heaven. You'll notice the post is kind of well...blank. We are not allowed to post any pictures of the little man. Sorry:)

We felt so blessed that we got to hear "the news" from the both of you, in person. What a wonderful day that you will always remember. I know that holding your baby boy sooner is better than later so we will be praying that you get through courts this month! God bless you Frasers!! :-)
