Big news for the Clan Aug 2006

Hi all,

I had hoped to update this blog a bit more frequently but.........
We have had a very busy month and there is lot of new things to let you all know.

I have a feeling the Steelers will repeat as world champions... Woohoo!!! Very glad football is back. On that note Fall baseball will be starting up in the East Lake Little League. Kyle is very excited as he is moving up to coach pitch & I am glad that I will once again be able to throw some "lefty" BP to help the team prepare. I will not be managing the team this fall as I am unsure of my weeknight work schedule, but will help coach & plan to return to manage in the spring.

The boys have been back in school since the beginning of August so we are getting settled into the regular routine. Kyle is in 1st grade & has been doing real well.
He seems to have quite the following, we are also signing up for the soccer season & Grandad is excited to see that. Grandad (& Grandma) love their soccer & After some brief work in the yard last fall with Grandad, Kyle's 1st soccer season turned around & now he loves it. Sean is in the 5 day a week pre-K 4 program & he is doing great... He wishes he had school on Saturday & Sunday (Much like his mom & dad used to???). He really enjoys getting to see all his buddies. Ryan is in 3 days a week & all we can say is God bless his teachers. He is a handful, we will leave it at that.

Katy continues to uncover new baby girl names, for our little girl in China. I think it is safe to say that there is typically 5 or 6 names a week that we have to "discuss". As all of you know she likes to stay busy, she is having fun helping out in the boys schools & working out at the YMCA. Sean & Ryan also join her there at the Kids Gym or in the Rookie sports programs they offer.

As far as our little girl... Unfortunately there is really nothing new to report.
We continue to track the "anticipated" wait to match, but it still seems like we are very far away. Our best guess at this point is that we will be traveling to finalize everything about 12-14mths from now (Fall 2007). Here is a link to our adoption agency if you want to take a look see: http://www.chinesechildren.org/
Still we are very excited & working on getting everything in order... time always goes a lot faster than you expect.

We all hope you are doing well... The Cunningham Clan
