Update on Ethan!



We received a little update on Ethan. He is doing really well with his foster family, and is trying to learn to stand on his own. His favorite thing to do is to pick up toys and throw them down - 100% pure boy! I cannot wait to see that sweet face in person. We are still patiently waiting for the approval to come from China, which I hope will come sometime in January. Good thing the holidays are here to distract us in the meantime...

I have also had the pleasure of working with a group called Grant Me A Chance. They are a non-profit group that helps adoptive families like us raise funds to help offset the expenses with the adoption. People always ask us how much it costs to adopt a child - and it can cost up to $15,000. Since Ethan's referral was so sudden and unexpected, we aren't as prepared as we had thought we would be. But Grant Me a Chance offered to post Ethan's story on their website to allow people to donate towards his adoption! I have also included the ChipIn link on our blog as well, so if you would like to donate - you can just click on the ChipIn icon and follow the steps from there.
