More Pictures!!!!

Well... Here is the story of our WONDERFUL Emmee Leone!!! WE got a Call on Wednesday afternoon and they stated they had a situation that was an unknown sex and she was flying in to Utah that day. They said she had a doctors apt at 3 and we would know more. They said she was due the 9th of January, they said it was an Agency pick, so if we wanted it, this baby was ours.
So we prayed and Brad and I both decided ( with the lords helps) that this was the one and that it was good we didn't know the sex of the baby... Just leave it up to the big guy!!
So we got a call later that night and the Birth Mom (BM) was dilated to a 4 so if she didn't have the baby that night they would start her in the morning. So we got a text message around 1:15p.m and it said CONGRATULATIONS it a GIRL!!!!! and that the BM wanted us to not come to the hospital until after she had signed the papers.
So Friday we get told the BM is still okay with everything ( what a strong, beautiful and very wonderful women.. whom we love very much) and we needed to be by the Hospital around 1:30pm. So we went and signed all the papers and at the last min. the BM wanted to meet me.
WOW what a very scary but spiritual meeting that was: I walked in to the room and asked her if I could give her a hug. I think we hugged for about a min. while I whispered to her how much I love her and how beautiful she is. I gave her a gift that hopefully she loved and started to cry. I told her I felt blessed to have her in our lives and I will take the BEST care of her baby that I know how. WE talked for about 20 min and she said her goodbyes and left to jump on a plane back to her home state.. WOW what a very strong women. I love her and we will pray for her often!! Here is the WONDERFUL baby girl she delivered and the beautiful little girl I got to take home...
