Adopting!

So I had no idea that anything would happen so fast, but here we are, officially set to adopt a newborn baby boy that is due Jan.2oth. We have been blessed to find an amazing birth mother who is letting me go to appointments and who wants me in the delivery room. I had a night of anxiety last night because I feel so unprepared, but beyond that I can hardly conceal fits of joy. We know anything can still happen, but we are moving forward witha ton of faith and hope. We have settled on the name Jackson William Durham and love that he already has two awesome boy cousins (6 months apart!) Anywho, thought I would pass on the good news.
