Welcome Amelia Mae!!

Our precious girl is here!!! This moment is so surreal to us in so many ways. God had our story written out from day one to have her in our arms. Most of you know our story but one thing you may not remember is where we were one year ago today. One year ago we were in the hospital and we were saying goodbye to our baby girl. We were heartbroken an unsure where God was taken us! One year later we were signing papers to officially become Amelia's mom.  We are blown away by Gods faithfulness and love for us!! 

Amelia's story:
We got to the hospital around 9am. We met another family that was there adopting too! Their son was to be born anytime as well. We talked for awhile then out case worker ran out and rushed me in the room!  I stood by Amelia's birth mom as she quickly pushed her out at 10:08 am. She is beautiful!! She weighed 7.4 lbs and was 18 /12 inches long! We have been by her side ever since!! 

We never understood the love we would have with our birth mom. We have been so blessed by this amazing women and have developed a great relationship with her. We will be keeping in touch with her throughout Amelia's life! 

It has been a whirlwind of a time, full of crazy emotions! We couldn't have done this with out Gods amazing love and your support! We are so very thankful and blessed beyond words by you all! Amelia will know the army of friends and family that walked this journey with us to get her home! Thank you!! Enjoy the pics!!
