Mac Blackburn's Gotcha Day Video
Sorry for the delay in posting. We have been very
busy with paperwork and typical baby stuff. Mac is
definitely keeping us busy. He likes to watch everything
that is going on around him and loves to run around in
the hallway of the hotel. We have to try to contain him
so he doesn't disturb all the other guests. Thank goodness
Madeline has prepared us well for his arrival.
We are pretty used to one being constantly on the move.
He has adjusted very well and continues to show us more
of his personality each day.
Yesterday we did paperwork in the morning and then
had his medical exam in the afternoon. He weighed
21 pounds and was 31 inches tall. Today we went to
Carrefour Market which is a lot like Wal-Mart for some
supplies. This afternoon we did paperwork to apply for
Mac's visa and tomorrow we will visit the orphanage.
It is about two and half hours away by bus, so please pray
for our safety. We should get to see a lot the countryside
on this journey and see where Mac spent the first 19 months
of his life. We love you all and miss you! We are ready
to get home. We are in need of a soft bed, vegetables at
Bryant's, and Mi Pueblo.
Kelly, Jason, Madeline, and Mac

Welcome to the world of trying to get two kids to look at the camera at the same time. It's not easy! He's sooo cute. Seeing the video makes me want to hold him and kiss him. I am very proud of Madeline. She seems to be wonderful with him and perfectly able to take care of his every need, whether he wants her to or not. I am praying that you all will have a safe and wonderful day and that the rest of your trip will be blessed. Love always, Suzanne, David, Hunter, and Austin
