Great news!! You've given those of us following behind you hope! Have Samuel give Evan Santiago a baby hi-5 and tell him they'll get back together soon in MN. Can't wait to see the pictures of your family together!

It was great to meet you guys for dinner. Jen has something small for the suitcase for Evan (if you can fit it). Email us and we'll express mail it to you.

Woo Hoo!!! One more step to check off on the list! I absolutely love the new pictures, what a cutie pie. Thanks for the kind words on our site, but I can't imagine the position you are in. At least we won't have the picture AND still have to wait. I'm praying for astoundingly quick paper pushing! (I have to admit the prospect of being there at the same time as pros like you is pretty appealing - so selfishly, also praying for timing there, too :)

Falcon Heights, MN - Friday, January 16, 2009 10:48 AM CST

Woohoo!! That's great news! I can't wait to follow along once you get word to travel down to get Sam. As you can see, I'm already "stalking!"

It was really great seeing you guys last weekend.

Happy New Year Breunig family! Glad you made it in your new house, and that you were able to get the tree up - they are pretty just the way they are! No frills needed.

We are so sorry that you are still stuck in this mess called the I-800A! I really hope things progress, because it must be so hard to see pictures and not be able to hold that little son and little brother of yours! We are praying hard and often.

Take care,
Brett, Heather, and Henry

Hi- Thanks for the update. We love the new pictures of Sam, Ellie and Mateo! We are praying you will get to travel soon --it shouldn't have to take so long!!!
We are so happy you are in your new house! I can't even imagine your panic with Ellie...I panicked once when I lost Noah in our house for 2 seconds. It makes for a great story now that all is ok! Merry Christmas! Matt, Sarah & Noah

Middleton, WI USA - Monday, October 27, 2008 7:39 PM CDT

Hey Breunigs! I don't think I have signed the guestbook since you posted the new, adorable photo of Sam (or for Tao's benefit "Victor"). CUTIE PIE!

We can't wait for our next trip to FANA. We will ask if we can see him and snap a photo or two. I know that when we waited for our meeting with Henry, those extra photos were priceless. And to see one of his smile...melts your heart!

We'll send big hugs and kisses from all of you!

Love,
