We have Caleb and Seth!!

What an amazing day!
I don't think this day could of gone any better.
Caleb came right to us and began interacting.  Seth was hesitant until I pulled out the M&M's and within 10 seconds he was smiling and started playing with the toys that we brought.  Within 5 minutes both boys were rolling the cars across the floor and acted like they had known each other all their lives.

Minutes after we met them and they met each other.



Meet Seth Curtis

Meet Caleb Joseph.

Seth being a goofball.

Working on Lego's.

Wonder what they are saying?

Originally we had planned on getting room service tonight, but the boys were doing so great we decided to walk down the street to McDonald's.  They saw the sign and got so excited, Seth started saying "hamburger" in English.  They devoured their burger and fries!



After McDonald's they took a bath, played some more and are now both asleep after playing and chatting in the bed for about 10 minutes.  They chatter constantly in Chinese to each other, we think them having each other is helping.

It has been amazing how well things have gone. 
Thank you for all your prayers!!

Tomorrow morning we will go visit Caleb's orphanage and then in the afternoon, we go back to the Civil Affairs office for the official adoption ceremony and the boys are officially ours!!

  3. What an answer to prayer that both boys came to you so willingly! I'm thrilled for you (and also insanely jealous...) Hoping that they are also both sweet and kind and calm and easy.
