November 2011 Archives

After a weekend of shopping, we've now got some nice furniture on the way for Simone's room and a new Bob stroller. This will be handy to store all the gifts that have been showing up at the door and in boxes!

We are so grateful for family & friends who are helping support us in this life transition! And a special thank you to Brett's Mom, who is here helping us adjust to the new schedule..

I'll post some more photos soon, I hope!

Debbie and I are incredibly pleased to announce that we adopted a baby girl yesterday. She was born at 6lbs 4oz, and brought her home Sunday, Nov 6th after a couple of whirlwind days preparing for her arrival. She is in perfect health!

The past 6 days have been an absolute whirlwind, from first getting a call about a possible adoption to driving home with a newborn 2 days later. We're all healthy and happy, and now trying to figure out work, and sleep schedules that work for everyone.

Here are some pictures:
