Our MEETCHA Day

Today was AMAZING!!! Meeting Jacob was such a special moment!! AWAA has you stand on the porch and they bring him out to you while people stand and take video and pictures of you!! Thankfully Brad’s parents and 3 other families were all there to take LOTS of pictures and video for us. I love that we have this special moment captured on video and in pictures. We watched the video tonight and we all cried, again. They were thankful and amazed tears!!
Jacob is the sweetest little boy, so happy and content. He came right to us and was all smiles from the beginning!! He even gave us some belly laughs. He also rolled over!! We have video of it all!! We LOVE him so much and can't wait to go back to play with him again. He liked to spread out on the blanket and be on his tummy. He can hold his head up pretty well on his stomach. He likes to move around a lot in our arms. I got to feed him a bottle today, he is a messy eater.
The nannies love the kids there so much. I have heard that from other adopting families, but it was so nice to see it myself!! As I kept holding him in my arms, I kept thinking how lucky we were that God choose us to be Jacob’s parents!! God has truly blessed us on this adoption journey!! I can truly say that the waiting was so worth it, and I can’t even remember how hard it was at times anymore. So for all you waiting families- know that the hard waiting time will pass, and once you get that child in your arms, it is SO WORTH IT!!!!
Our MEETCHA day couldn't have been any better!! Praise God!!
