Worth The Wait

 We'd like to introduce you to someone.  Meet Cole:
 Holding Cole for the first time:

 First day home.  Daddy's been waiting for this moment for 5 years!
 Grandma's loving on that baby as well.
 Big Brother's turn.  He stayed home today to help take care of the baby.




We haven't even had a sleepless night, and Daddy's already wiped out.  The emotion of the past month has us spent already.

Welcome Home, Little Man!  We've been waiting and praying for you for a long time.

  1. Oh, the look of Jackson's arms around that new baby, the tilt of his head say how precious the baby is to him.
    Love seeing Matt sound asleep (sort of) with the baby in his arms. I know he was only half asleep!
    Congratulations! Blessings on the Dear Birth Mother!

  5. I showed my kids your pictures. They all think he is so cute. :) Camille's comment was the best, though. When she saw the picture of you and Matt and Cole she said, "Oh, Mom, look at how happy Mira is to have her baby." I'd have to agree that you and Matt both look very happy in that picture.

  11. We are so very happy for your family! He is such a special blessing for you. And like Ruth Ann said, bless the dear birth mother. She has made a great sacrifice and chosen a wonderful family. I'm sure the last weeks have been anxious and exciting for you. Now on with life and bringing up two wonderful boys!
    Love,
    Aunt Karen
