We're behind on our wishes...SORRY!!

Just letting everyone know that we do have about 11 more wishes to post for Avery's quilt but it's been so busy the last week that we are behind. They should be up in the next few days. We've had family up the last few days (Alli's brother Tom, Our Sister in law Liz, and our 2 nieces Jessica & Jodi). We've been to the fair and down to the cottage, and Gary and I have been kayaking a lot lately. But today makes it official. We have been officially waiting 2 months for Avery (our LID was 7/3/07 and today is 9/3/07) and that seemed quick...so hopefully the next few months will fly also. Here's crossing our fingers!!

Keep the wishes and the squares coming, we would like to start looking at patterns for the quilt and we hope all who were invited to participate will send their quilt squares to us along with their wishes for Avery. We love receiving them and our first set of pages in the book are full and we will need to add more already! We've had such positive feedback about the quilt and the wishes ...we are so happy for that!

While we were at the NY State Fair we had some "signs" again. While we were in the coliseum a family came up and sat across from us, they were an American Mom & Dad with 2 Asian daughters. We were explaining to our niece Jodi that that was what Avery was going to look like(Jodi is 5 almost 6). It gave us a glimpse into our family in a couple years of having 2 beautiful Asian daughters!!(Yes, we are going to do this again)

Then, while our niece Jodi was riding the merry go round at the fair another couple was standing next to us and they had an Asian son. Not very old probably 10-12 months old. He was adorable. It looked like they hadn't been back very long from their trip. Gary wanted me to go up and ask them about it but I wasn't quite sure how to start that conversation. But it was fun to watch them and watch his reaction to the ride. He was a very content and happy little guy.

So that's been our week, we'll post the wishes soon!!! Hope everyone had a great holiday and hope everyone has a great school year!!

Love to everyone,
Alli & Gary
