Happy Happy Gotcha Day!!!!

One year ago today Lucy became our daughter-- officially that is. What a wonderful day in the span of a lifetime with our daughter. We love you Lucy and are privileged to have you as our sweet little Lulubelle.

Well, we've made it! Things are still not completely organized; ok that is definitely an understatement. But, we're getting there. We like it here. The kids have their good days and bad. There are great things to do as a family, and we are trying to take as much initiative to do those things as possible. We like Cooper's school--yes he has already started. They have year round schools, and he's at one. Lucy was pretty clingy at first, but as she comes to see this as home she's losening up some.
We are planning on contacting early intervention for Lucy. When we were in Muskogee she had a great physical therapist and we want to make sure that she continues to improve. She is now walking with holding one finger for support. She has taken a couple of steps by herself (the first ones on the day we left for Nevada) but hates to fall and therefore doesn't have a lot of desire to let go. I know that she'll reach this milestone soon though.
