He's home!

Yay! Our little boy is finally home. And what fun today has been. I felt completely sick on our way to the agency today. I thought I was going to puke right there in the floorboard of our car. Just a combination of nerves, I guess. But then we had another great visit with Paxton's birthmom and her family. We are very blessed! We spent about an hour with the family and got some great pictures together. Everyone was loving on Paxton. Then we headed home. Holden just watched his little brother the whole way home. And said "bubba" alot during that car ride. Then we came home and literally forgot to take pictures. We were just cuddling with our new baby boy all evening. My mom came in last night. And she has already been very helpful. It's been good to have the extra hands. And I will enjoy those extra hands all week long! Later this evening I decided that some of you might want to see our handsome little fella, so I snapped a few pictures. More details to come later . . . not sure when. But here is really what you have been waiting for . . .
Meeting our little one!
I caught daddy loving on baby Pax. They were finally getting some one on one time.

sweet, alert face.
we're all in love our new little bundle!
Holden checking in on bubba. Right after this picture Holden offered Paxton his paci. Already trying to share. Sweet brothers!
A family picture right before bedtime. I honestly CAN NOT believe that we are so quickly a family of 4. I am loving it!

Yeah! We can't wait to meet him. It looks like Holden is already enjoying his little brother! We'll be praying for a smooth transistion and for peace for his precious birthmom.

Praise God!

I love love love the pictures. What a sweet little boy. I honestly got a little teary eyed as I was looking at pics. I am just so happy for you guys. Holden is going to be such a good big brother, I can already tell. Congrats you guys!

HOLY COW!!!! I still cannot believe all of this. Do you know we've not had another playgroup since our last one when we were talking about this guy??? Seriously, that's how fast this has all gone!

My goodness girl. I am just lovin' adoption, as I always do and cannot believe your handsome fellas and how God has blessed you all so much!

Enjoy your boys. Enjoy being a family of 4. I am still giggling inside when I think about our playdate at the zoo 3 months ago when you were thinking Holden might be 2 before you started the process again. Oh, God loves it when we try and plan stuff, huh? Now you'll look as silly as I do when juggling these two...oh my goodness it's a blast though!

HUGS TO ALL YOU GUYS!
