It's A Boy!!

Big news - we have a referral!! We are excited to announce the soon-to-be-newest addition to the Dirks family! He is 10 months old and SOOO cute! He has big brown beautiful eyes, just like big brother Isaac. :) Now we're waiting for an Ethiopian court date, and soon after that we'll be able to bring him home. We really don't know how long we'll have to wait to get into court, but please pray that it will be soon. We are obviously very anxious to get him home.

We've decided not to post or e-mail out his picture yet, but we will be carrying it with us everywhere we go, so if you see us, you can stop us and say "Let me see him!" and we'll be happy to oblige!

Aww! Congratulations! We just had very good friends that got their baby in October. They adopted from Russia and Spencer was 11 months old when they brought him home! Hopefully you'll have your new little guy home in time to celebrate his first birthday!
