February Update... Garrett's BIG Month...

It was 3 years ago this month that we met Garrett in a small orphanage in Russia and it is significant that on the very day 3 years later, he made his first solo flight on his two wheeler. In an instant, we could see his wings spreading and and ear to ear smile. I have never heard someone laugh so hard while doing something that is so scary. This same month he also learned to pump on the swing and will spend hours out there singing to himself.

Jordan is playing hockey now and is as rough and tough as the boys. She does not skip a beat and I must admit … I love seeing a lot of me in her.


Ayden… oh Ayden. There is always one. Likes her hair down a certain way… likes to pick out her clothes and basically bosses everyone around. No one listens. When that happens, she just gets louder. I am happy that she is assertive, but relish the quiet hours of nap time.

Like most other months here in Florida, we have been spending a lot of time at the beach. We know that it won't be long when the kids aren't interested in the adventures they take with mom and dad, so we are trying to fit in as much as much as possible.

Happy February .. from the Carey's
