One year ago today....
One year ago today the sweetest little boy was place in our arms for the first time. I can't believe a year has gone by already.
He has settled into our family and has completely changed our lives for the better. What a blessing. For those waiting, my heart goes out to you. The wait was crushing to me. I'm so glad that part is over.

Congrats on one year!
  I agree - the wait was the most trying time of my life.

Congratulations on one terrific year!
It's been fun following along seeing how your little man has settled in and how you and DH have settled in as parents. Where does the time go? We are closing in on 5 months since we got Jake. On one hand, it's hard to believe it's been that long already, and on the other hand it's hard to believe he hasn't been with us forever. Kevin

Happy Family Day!!!
I too am shocked at how quickly the year went and remember following your blog during your pick up trip. Still cackle every single time I remember that picture you posted with him doing tumbles in his split undies. LOL!
