Our Airport Homecoming Pics...

Yes, I'm VERY blessed to have my friend Karen in my life who will show up and take GREAT pics of any occasion going on in my life.... She snapped these pics of our homecoming at the airport...and I just had to share...It was an amazing moment to instantly become a family of 8!! We LOVE our boy beyond words and as you can see in the pics...everyone is QUITE smitten with his loveliness...(well...except for LL..she's not quite sure what to think of him yet...as you can see in this first pic below...she was less than thrilled with his arrival...and she wouldn't quite cooperate sitting beside him in the pic :)
















































thank you so much karen...I will cherish these pics forever!! You caught such precious moments!! Oh, how we are BLESSED to have our little Wes!! We love you sweet boy and are so glad you are home!! happy Friday to you all, kj

    It's hard for me to really wrap my mind around it all. Here was this tiny little baby struggling for life, and now he is home and we can already see he is thriving. Thanking Jesus and crying with joy for your family.

    Ohmygosh! Those pictures make me so emotional!!! I am sitting here smiling and crying all at the same time!! LOL!

    Congrats to you and your family. I keep thinking about you guys and am wishing you much love.

    Just FYI I tried to post yesterday but blogger was down. Glad I can finally offer my congratulations!

    P.S. I couldn't help but crack up at Wes holding the balloon all by his lonesome at the end and Lucy laying on the floor. LOL! What a stinker she is!

    It's funny how it is taking a while to sink in. With all the commotion and rush of the airport, it is so nice to sit down and look back at such an amazing and blessed event today. God's hand was surely in the design of this from beginning to now. So glad to be spending time with you and Wes and getting to know his adorable self!!! I'm so proud of you!!! Thanks for your sweet words today. It was truly my pleasure.

    Those are amazing - what a blessing to have such a wonderful friend to capture them for you! My favorites is your family of 8 all leaving together and hubby holding LL and you holding your other two littles! I showed my hubby and I said, "I hope that's us someday...with arms full of kids!" =) So fun!

    SO glad Wes is home and all is going well! I was so sad for you just a couple of weeks ago when you posted that the Embassy trip was a no go but then overjoyed to learned that you were quickly approved! God is good! Praying for your family during this adjustment period.

    Blessing,
    Valerie
