August 1st, 2013

August 1st is a special day in our house. One year ago today we sent a pack of papers to China requesting to be Cargan’s parents. It was also a special day because we were requesting it on his birthday. Now a year later we are able to celebrate his birthday with him! It was a precious celebration. He was so excited to be having a party. He counted down the days. What he didn’t expect was all the presents. My mom arrived first and set out her 2 presents. He was amazed there were 2! He cautiously looked at them wondering if they were for him. He asked if he could open one. I told him after everyone arrived he could open one. We set out ours then more were set out when other family members arrived. As soon as the last person arrived he pulled me to the presents asking to open one. Pierson gave him the gift he had gotten and Cargan was thrilled. He went off to play a little with his new toy and then came and pulled me aside. He took me to another room shut the door and with those sweet eyes put up 2 little fingers. He was motioning asking if he would be aloud to have one more present. I explained to him that after we ate “noodles” (his favorite) for dinner he would open up all the presents. He was so excited and began jumping up and down yelling “Yay” . We had a beautiful first Birthday celebrating with family. Here are a few of the highlights. 
Eating noodles.

Not too impressed with the clothes in the bag but he liked the hangars.
