so, most of you have heard...mandy and i were chosen and given the privilege, honor, gift of parenting two little boys...brothers...insanity...
i cannot even begin to share the level of excitement that was followed by tears of joy, followed by tears of being overwhelmed by grace, followed by the inevitable deer in the headlights...and some serious joy again!!! i can't believe this, but its on, trucks and cars...its on. mud fights...its on. food out the ying-yang...its on. football...its SO on. i cannot wait to take them to a football game, a monster truck rally, all you can eat Chinese buffet.
and i cannot wait to introduce them to our family...not mom and dad (although i'm stoked, and a lil bummed it'll be through skype)...but the koinoniaPDX family, they are so excited with us, and so many of them know how they will get to be a part of these boys lives for a loooooooooooooong time.
as far as pictures of the boys go...they're coming, have to stay within the realm of legality and safety, so not yet...but they're coming. be praying for this time of transition....this is gonna be fun...

Congratulations!!! Two boys! Wow! You were right to list all those things you are looking forward to and I particuraly laughed at the references to lots of food! Our one son eats enough to feed a family of four and he is skinny!! Can't imagine two boys. :) But it is a joy to be the mother and father of a son. You two will be in bliss!! Just remember to hang with them through their testing and discipline issues! I have seen that boys require a lot of hands-on parenting!
