We have a son!!

Yesterday we verbally accepted the referral of a baby boy!!!! I am excited and a little in shock (not expecting this so soon) at the same time. We have a lot to do!! Anyway, I wanted to share our excitement. YAHOO!!!! I will post a picture after all of the formal acceptance forms have been sent to Korea.
