Me so sorry, not many pictures today
We planned on having several pictures and stuff on here today but we went for a walk to the grocery and after shopping it started raining on us on the way home. We found that the kids get very wound up if we take them out in public (because they aren't used to it) and we can't get them to go to bed. (No more late day trips!!!!) Tommorrow is a very busy day for us, we meet with several people to go over court proceedures. so we will not post tommorrow until about this time again (for anyone checking)
I here huricanes are most of your news. If Katrina is in the news here we wouldn't know, no time to watch and wouldn't understand if it was on anyway.
Thanks mom and Sara for calling, Yes the babies are still up and don't show signs of going down anytime soon. We love you all and will try to give better posts later in the week.
We will try to give everyone the confirmed date and TIME for our court hearing. We have to make speeches and answer a few hours of questions (I hope our translator cleans it all up some) and would really like to have as many of you that can praying for us. If we don't get immediate execution then we have to stay until Oct. or real close to it. Please remember us on Monday (we will post the time, of course it will be in the night for most of you but God doesn't need our timing to be perfect. His always is!
We would love to be home on the 14th of Sept. but It isn't up to us. Thank you all for your continued support. Hope you like the few pictures we could post. by the way those aren't teeth in Andrews mouth, it is a fruit puff.

Even if your court date is in the middle of the night for us, we can still wake and pray. Some things are more important than sleep anyway. "Where two are more are gathered..."
Love ya,
Andrea
I meant "two OR more"
See, I am already sleep deprived. What can a little more hurt me!
Of course we will pray for you all like andrea said even if it is in the middle of the night. The hurricane was bad. It is heart breaking. The kids look healthy We hope you both are staying healthy too. Have a great day love Elva
I didn't read the other sept1 post. the pics are great. What a night. Just enjoy they go by so fast someday you'll be listening to a friend complain about their sleepless baby nights and you won't even be able to remember yours, Believe me I do wish for those days now my boys have grown so fast. Well that's enough of that have a lovely day -Elva-
Sam, (or should I say Jack Webb) I thought the babies went to sleep as we spoke. Sorry if we messed up their routine...as you can see, when there are 2 they take cues from each other..but then sometimes one can demand as much attention as several... as everyone keeps saying, enjoy, this too shall pass.
I am anxious for you to get them home so they can really get into a routine.
Maybe Baby can help keep them calm. Love Mom
I can't believe you have more pictures for us!!! Thank you..Thank you!!!
It was very good to hear all your voices including the grunt we got from Anrew.
I will email you and not bore everyone else with details of your niece's and nephews life. No school here on September 5. We plan to celebrate with you as Elizabeth and Andrew get a new last name and an "official" Mommy and Daddy!!!!
Gotcha date September 5, 2005
Love to all
Aunt Sara
Sam and Holly:I suppose its Friday there. So time is passing.Court day is close and I KNOW YOU BOTH MUST BE ANXIOUS. i AM. iTS FOR SURE A LOT OF FOLKS WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU. i AM GOING TO TRY AND NOT WORRY TOO MUCH. hOPE YOU ALL CAN DO THE SAME. aNY SANE JUDGE WOULD SEE THAT THOSE KIDS WERE MADE FOR YOU ALL AND AWARD THEM WITH LITTLE ADO. lOVE POPPY
I agree with Poppy...This ought to be a done deal. Now,you take care and go sweep that judge off his feet like I know you can. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love you all, aunt Jane
Good morning all you Dunnings. Hope it was another sleep filled night (sorry, couldn't resist that one). BTW, did Elizabeth manage to pull another double supper last night? I think that from this point forward, I will call her "Joe Sneaky". Just gotta love that budda belly. Sounds like she has been training hard days and nights to get to her peak "form". Don't worry guys, we didn't have the white chili or the ice cream. Christy must be holding out for you guys.
Sam, you know my schedule as well as I. I will be at work all night on the 5th. Send word when everything will be happening, and you can add me to the list of your intercessors. Christy (yawn) will set her alarm (yawn). Go ahead and explain to Andrew and Ms Sneaky that they will probably be pretty sore once they get home. I can see some serious handling (by us) after the shipping (by you) in their immediate future. Hug them for us.
I totally agree with everyone else. There are things that are more important than sleep. You tell us the time and we will be making our requests known to God. I am so excited. This has been so incredible to have been allowed to share this with you. Thank you for allowing us to peek into your lives during this exciting time. We are already praying for you so by the time Monday comes God will be worn out. (I don't really think He gets worn out, He is probably just enjoying hearing from all of us on your behalf). Hope your night is restful. Joy Beth
Yes, please let us know the time of your proceedings there, and what that translates to in our time zones here! Hurricane Katrina is dominating the news. In fact, the red cross setup an emergency shelter as far north as here, Atlanta for those that don't know me, less than 3 miles from my house. I was there tonight helping to setup and will be volunteering over the next month or so. I continue to pray over you both and your precious gifts. I'm sure you are approaching the most unsettling time, keep your mind on Him and He will keep you in perfect peace! By the way, I have another friend headed to Moscow September 13 to adopt! Russia is dominating my prayer life these days! God Bless!
If you have a t.v. you might want to turn it on even though you won't understand what they are saying. The pictures are easy enough to understand. You will be thankful you are in a foreign country (with all of the problems that denotes) with five flights of stairs and no elevator (with all of the problems conected with that)and your future at the mercy of a courtroom judge [smile].
Love the pictures and miss you'all. Will be counting the days until you get home. And praying that the judge releases you'all to come home on the 14th.
Love Mom and Dad
