We're so grateful for Stefanie & Nic and their strength.
We got to spend three and a half weeks in Utah with many branches of our new family. We are now home again in the commonwealth.
Thank you everyone for your love and support! (Sorry about the blog silence, we've been busy with our new bundle of joy!)
Here are some of our favorite pictures:
beautiful healthy baby girl
tenacious right from birth
Stef & Nic
4 parents; 1 purpose 
very first bath...this girl loves getting her hair washed
We brought Bradshaw to visit the next day and (Stef is so thoughtful and kind and loving to us) she put Olivia in this onesie that says "I'm the little sister." It really touched our hearts.
this was right before placement....
adoption is most definitely about love

This makes me happy :)
congrats! I am so happy for you guys! It is so wonderful to see how Bradshaw has just taken to his little sis. It was great seeing/talking with you on skype. Keep in touch
one of my favorite things is watching bradshaw with olivia. he holds her hand, brings her binkie when she cries, and always wants to sit next to her. what perfect siblings.
Yay! I followed Olivia's story on Stef's blog and facebook! I was so excited when she posted that she was in labor for you guys! How blessed is that lil girl to have so many people that love her!
We knew that you all would be busy with traveling and a new little addition and that these pictures would come once you got more settled back home (like others, I've been following Stephanie's blog for updates- what an amazing person she is!) I especially love the one of Olivia holding Bradshaw's finger :)
P.S. Love the new name of the blog!
I'm so glad you are back. I can't wait to meet Olivia. And Bradshaw is such a cute big brother!
So so so happy :) I can't wait to get some snuggle time with Little Miss Olivia.
Congratulations. You have a beautiful family. Bradshaw is such a sweet brother. We can't wait to meet your new addition. Hopefully we can make a trip down to Washington DC soon.
Oh she is just perfection! I can't look at a single picture of Olivia with her birth parents and not tear up. What amazing strength and love.
Congratulations you guys!
