we know his face...

 friday we received our referral call!!!

we are the PROUD parents of beautiful baby boy
he is about 2 months old
he has gorgeous brown eyes, full lips, and a head FULL of hair!! 

{due to confidentiality we cannot show post his picture}  
but i can show you some feet!!

i mean aren't they the cutest feet ever!?!

we can't stop staring at his picture and our cheeks hurt from smiling!

when we heard "this is your referral call" i just sobbed...really.
i couldn't believe this day was FINALLY here.

evan prayed and thanked God for his faithfulness and especially in the waiting.
we thanked God for our little hun-nee and asked that we could meet him soon!


then we saw him.  our son!!!

we tried the to read the information on him, but our heads were whirling.
he is healthy!!  beautiful!! we are over the moon!!

 my mom was at the women's retreat at our church.... let's just say our good news spread REALLy quickly!  :D

we called our families and a few friends and then quickly filled up our weekend telling people our good news!

unfortunately we didn't get pictures with everyone we saw this weekend.  mainly because we weren't always thinking straight!!  

we met up with evan's family in richmond on saturday evening to celebrate.

my favorite moments from the weekend:
THE phone call
our first look
the gasps from evan's family and my brother when they saw him
pat cassada when he opened the door to find us at his door step
every tear, scream, and smile from family and friends rejoicing with us!!

we are exhausted, but it is the best exhausted i think we have ever felt!!
