Our new addition!

We have a new baby! On the 25th of August we received a phone call from our adoption agency. They inquired as to how life was going for us and if it was crazy enough. My reply was that I like to refer to life as "organized chaos"! Our agent then told us about a baby boy that was due in two and a half weeks in Louisiana. As you can imagine the last couple of weeks have been crazy. We were told that the birth mother was due on the 14th of September and with her previous pregnancy she was a week early. So we have been expecting her to come early and then she was late! Not just a day or two late, but eight days late and then they did an emergency c-section. The baby was born on Wednesday. Yesterday, being Thursday, we found out he was 6 lbs. 2 oz. We have had to wait for approval from the agency before we could leave. So here it is Friday morning and we are sitting at the airport waiting for a flight to Dallas and then we will rent a car and drive the rest of the way. As we find out more info we will let you know, and of course post pictures when we have them.
