Happy Birthday to our little Miracle… Bailey

While this time of year is special to so many for a multitude of reasons, it is particularly special to us.  This time 3 years ago we were unraveling at the seams waiting for sweet Bailey to be born.  You may recall our wild adoption journey here, hereherehere and lastly here.

There are lots of miracles this season, but we think ours is a little special -

First meeting

Love at first sight

Getting her ready to go home

I will never forget how nerve racking this was!  Trying to dress a newborn and
put her in a car seat for the first time while 10 social workers watch!!!

Little limbs :)
