a baby boy

we got a call and exactly 11:48 am on Monday morning…it was our adoption case worker! she simply said she wanted to meet with us that evening at 6:30 at the agency!  having been thru the adoption process before we knew what was up…we knew we must have been chosen by a birthmother…we were in shock (happy shock of course)! when we got to the agency our worker guided us into a room and left us with this darling diaper bag filled with BLUE, BROWN and GREEN things from the birthmother. andy and I looked at each other and giggled “it’s a boy!” we couldn’t believe it…and I think we still can’t believe it’s real.  our birthmother also made an amazing photo book for us…it’s darling! she included baby pictures of herself, family pictures, ultrasound pics, her testimony and also the story of how she came to know we were the family for her baby…it’s priceless! we get to meet her and her parents tonight…we are extremely excited! my sweet mom watched Abby all day (seriously it took us like 8 hours) yesterday while my sister Hailey and I ran all over gathering gifts for tonight. hailey was so nice to help…especially since she was leaving early this morning for mexico and hadn’t packed, done laundry or cleaned her house when we finished late last night. the gifts turned out perfectly though…i will post pictures later so you can see. i am so thankful for all the love and support we have been given by our family and friends. we will keep you all posted on all the happenings….oh…and I almost forgot he is due November 16th!
