So sorry for not being able to post while in Ethiopia. During our stay in Addis Ababa (the capital city of 3.6 million), electricity was only available every other day and when it was available, our internet connection was very slow (56K - 220K) causing simple page loads to take between 15 to 20 minutes at times. Even when I was able to get to the blog site, there was no guarantee of how long I would have a connection. I attempted to write and publish very simple posts, but each time was kicked off. By then 45 minutes had passed and other families were waiting in line. Thanks for understanding.
We left the US on Saturday and arrived back in Charlotte on Friday (yesterday). Both Lila and Kaleb slept all night and are already operating on our East Coast time. We took them to the doctor this morning and both were prescribed antibiotics. In a couple of weeks each will complete a very thorough physical.
Lila and Kaleb are two happy children with big smiles and laughs. It's hard to imagine all they have gone through in such a short time. By God's grace they are now home and we are so blessed to have them as our new children.
Here are a few pictures.
Thanks again for your continued love, support and prayers!
The Murdock Family

Thanks for sharing the adorable pictures! Your babies are simply precious! We cannot wait to meet them in person...please let us know when you'll be here for a visit. God is so good!
Congratulations, Murdock Family! Lila and Kaleb are such precious gifts from the Lord! I love all of the wonderful pictures. We wish we could have been there to welcome you all home! Samuel says, "I play with Kaleb?" when he looks at his pictures! He thinks it's really cool that he has a Batman shirt!
We were afraid that you may not travel with the recent MOWA break. We are thankful that you weren't affected. We would love to hear more about your trip once you are settled. May God bless your family during this transition.
I just got your blog address from Melinda and the Rogers' are absolutely THRILLED to see your very precious new family members. We marvel at how God continuously works all things out for His glory. Would LOVE to see you next time you are over this way. MUCH LOVE to the whole Murdock family... we are missing you!
