He's Coming...

I took our beautiful birth mom to the doctor today and she came out with a bright smile! 

HE'S COMING TOMORROW!!!!!

They start her on pitocin at five am!!!

The plan is for her to
  1. have him tomorrow.  :)
  2. Spend the day with him on her own and cherish that time.
Then we'll come up on Friday to meet him and see her.  Saturday we'll sign the papers and bring him home!!!

All plans are obviously subject to change...which is absolutely terrifying.

This is the time I've been dreading.  This is my emotional and spiritual labor.  Please pray for us.  Please, please, please pray for us and for her and that she is surrounded by supportive and loving friends and family. 

Our sweet little guy's middle name is Michael, and we're invoking Saint Michael to protect us all!!!

We can't wait to meet him!!!

AUGH!!!!

Nevertheless, you can count on my prayers for you, birthmom, and baby boy!!! Hang on tight!! He's coming!!! (oh and take some time, as hard as this might be, to go on a date with your husband. One last date night ... that's what we did!!)
