MY SON!!

Look! We have a son!!! His name means "Holy" which is wonderful and perfect because Malak means "Angel"...it's a sign! He is 3 months old (Aaaaw!)and he only weighs about 9 lbs! (Aaaaw, he is teeny weeny!) We love him SO much. He is the most adorable thing I have EVER seen. And I am not just saying that because he is my baby. He has cute dimples on both cheeks (facial cheeks, that is).
I SOOOO wish that i could show you all his picture- I want all of you who have been a part of this journey to see his ridiculously cute face...but soon enough!
Apparently, if you whine and complain on your blog, you will get a referral the next day!

YAAAAAAAAAY! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY! I'm so happy for you I'm all misty eyed and smiling so big my cheeks hurt!

Baby dimples are probaby the best thing that God every thought of. I'm so glad your little sweetheart has them!

I can't WAIT till you get through court and you can share him with all of us. (Especially me, because I've known you since you were, like, 8 years old, and I shouldn't have to wait too long for pictures of your sweet baby! You could always email a pic to me ginagfrost @ yahoo, but without the spaces and with a .com. I would be SOOOOOOO happy if I could get a sneak peek!)

Okay, I have to go back and read the end of your post--I was so excited I had to comment before I got done reading!

I don't really know exactly how I've missed your blog all these months, but I think I have seen it before briefly and didn't add it because I was probably too busy doing a whiney post (that didn't work)...

Anyway..... Huge CONGRATS. to you both! How exciting - I'll be sure to check in often for more details!

:)
