Last night Avery spontaneously gathered a bunch of her stuffed animals for a quick performance of "5 Little Monkeys Jumping on a Bed." She lined them all up and we sang for them and then she disappeared into another room. She shortly returned with our camera in her hand, gave it to me and said "cheese." Thus, this priceless photo was born.
Shortly after that Avery was playing in her little kitchen when she heard Katie sneeze in the other room. She whipped her head around to look at her mom and then ran to the restroom. She came out running towards Kate with a tissue, saying "here Mommy." I almost cried.
I hate to be the guy that posts to talk about his kid, but I thought these stories were worth sharing. As we continue to prepare with awe and excitement (not to mention fear and anxiety) for baby #2 we are reminded several times a day what a wonderful gift a baby is.
And on that note, it is with great joy and unparalleled praise that we can officially share with you that our dear friends Jeremy & Rochelle adopted a baby girl today. Maryn Kay Ann joined the world yesterday at 5 lbs. 12 oz. As many of you have walked alongside them (either directly or indirectly) in this journey you know what a long road it's been. God has answered many many prayers and a beautiful baby girl has found loving and amazing parents. We couldn't be happier! Congrats!!!
Love,
Adam

I happen to be someone who is glad that you are "that guy" who takes the time to post about your child...do I ever write about anything else? ;) Keep the stories and photos coming! Can't wait to hear about baby #2!
