Guess What!?!

We are so incredibly excited to tell all of you that a birth mom has chosen us!
We are expecting a baby girl due May 27th!
We found out on Wednesday that were were selected by a birth mom whom we love and now we are just working out the details and preparing to add a little baby to the family.

Ella was super excited when we told her...(see video)

We will be learning a lot more over the next months and will continue to update about the journey through the process and all throughout the first year. We do know that the birth mom is planning on having the baby here in Utah and we will meet her in about a month.

The journey isn't over it's just beginning and the final push is going to be raising the money for this a heck of a lot sooner than we anticipated. We appreciate every penny and prayer we have already received, and please know that we understand financial situations (trust us we KNOW the feels). But, just in case there is someone out there who was waiting for the right time or something like that we will post the links to the different fund raising options we have, and we will be doing a few more things to help us raise the money that we need in the next month. We have plans for 3 more big events to help us offset the cost and some smaller things (Norwex and Noonday anyone?) but we will post those here as more plans get finalized.

Thank you for the love and the prayers, we know that this is a gift from our Heavenly Father. We know that many prayers have been said in our behalf, and we know that they came from all of you... Thank You!!

It's Official!

We got word today that we are finally official! Hallelujah! It's funny because Erik and I both feel like we have been at this FOREVER, but it has only been just over 2 months. We are excited for this next part of the process and are hopeful to get a baby sooner than later! 
We appreciate all of your love, prayers, and support as we continue on this journey!
