First of all, thank you to Rachel....my sister.....for saving my blog.  She played around and figured out the side bar.  No pulling the plug today.

Thank you to all our family and friends and your love and support through our adoption experience.  Thank you for all your prayers and love.  We are still in Denver....expected to leave the hospital WITH ZANDER, tomorrow.  We are so excited.

Here are some more pictures of our time here and our beautiful Tess (she has given me permission to post her name).

Kya is so excited.
Getting in some cuddle time in our hospital room that Tess requested for us.
How do you entertain a 2 1/2 year old in a hospital....steal Tess's coloring books and crayons.
The girls went shopping for clothes for Zander....this is how we were when we got home.

I look horrible in this picture (30 hours of no sleep will do that to you), but Zander is smiling (look close), we has a dipple just like Jon (his birthfather)

Labor, yummy popsicles.  Isn't she beautiful.

Welcome to the world of multiples! It's a little wild at first - but just like everything you do - I'm sure it will come totally naturally and you'll be an instant pro! Lots of love & congratulations!
