More Pictures and Update

Hey All!
We had such a blessed night with Micah Asrat. He's a joy boy and never cries unless he's hungry or you take away the wet wipes (obsessed with the sound of the bag and the color yellow!). We can't believe how wonderful he is and how God has worked in his life. He has spared us from so much in the time that we waited for Micah.
 
From Sept to January the Nannies called Micah "Alquato?" which means unhappy or crier. He's now called "LOVE" at the TH! They all love him so much and cried when he left. He is such a joy. He's so cute he looks like he's made of rubber like a baby doll!
 
He did very well last night and slept from 9-5 then wanted a bottle and was wide awake. I am normally a person who needs lots of sleep but I have done so well since being here. This is God's GRACE (just ask my mother or husband ;0) I could stare at him forever and didn't mind at all being woken up at 5, even without coffee! I am still having stomach pains and haven't found the cause so I'm drinking lots of water, taking activated charcol, and sticking to carbs. Hopefully it will get better.
 
The internet is beyond slow and takes about 10 minutes to post 1 email. Pictures took me an hour last night. BRING A MAC!!! They work well. Facebook is really hard unless you're up at 3 am!
 
Ok, prayer requests. First, Micah does have Chicken Pox and chest congestion. However, he's not scratching and is so happy that we're not worried. The forced air on the airplane is a concern however. Please pray for a safe and restful trip ( we're flying at night).
 
Also, the Koby baby is sick, please pray for him. The Bartell's paperwork may or may not be at the Embassy. They've contacted their state rep and they say it's now there. Pray that it is!!!!
 
Finally, pray for peace and calm over the last 3 days. We are ready to be home with Devon Michael and miss him so much. I am fearful for his safety (control freak!!) at times and just want to be with both of my boys. We both cried when we talked with him last night.
 
Love you,
Kim
