Yes we have a NEW BOY in our lives

Yup it is true...we have officialy taken another referral of a baby boy.

I have been nervous to say anything becasue of what happend a few weeks ago. I got to meet Kooper...who will be Jagger on my last trip at 9 days old. We were not thinking about adopting a new born at all...but I guess God had other plans. The minute I saw those KYA dimples on his sweet little face...i just knew this baby boy was OURS. I am leaving again Sat with my mom to go see him and hand deliver my dossier. His 1month birthday is tomorrow!!!

Happy Birthday SON Mommy, Daddy, and Sissy miss you so very very much...and don't worry your sissy is playing with...I mean taking care of your 1 month BDay present for you..haha
