Miriam's birth certificate
Submitted by brian on October 28, 2005 - 4:36pm.Today we got a scan of Miriam's birth certificate. It lists us as the adoptive parents, with her name created by the usual Ethiopian formula: the first name is Tideg, which they gave her at the care center, but the middle name comes from her father's first name. So the full name on her birth certificate is Tideg Brian $%^&. Very odd. Her legal name will be changed to the name on this website after we get to the states. Anyway, here is the picture of her from the birth certificate, a "mugshot" of sorts.

A busy time...
Submitted by danielle on October 12, 2005 - 10:52pm.It's been awhile since I have had the time to post anything on the blog... I needn't have worried about time flying by until we travel. There is just so much to do. I am leaving most of the travel arangements to Brian and our travel agent to sort out. They seem to be doing a good job! Right now it looks as if our travel dates will be leave for Kenya on Nov 4th and arrive in Ethiopia on Nov 13th. Mira will have just turned 5 months old! Actually today is her 4th month birthday. :-)
