BIG NEWS

Yes, the rumors are true! Jared and I are adopting a brand new baby boy in just 5 weeks and we are so stinkin excited! The birth mom is super awesome, and we'll be going down to southern CA on conference weekend for our little guy's big entrance into the world. His due date is April 6th, and we're probably going to be on cloud 9 for awhile. We're aware that our naiveness might be irritating at times, but please just let us ride this happiness train as long as we can. It's been a long time coming, and all though the days of sleeplessness and poopy diapers are upon us, we are so excited because when that kid screams, we'll know it's ours. When those diapers are poopy we'll know they came from our kid and not someone else's. And THAT people... that is good to know. We're going to name him Lukas Daniel, and will get to go to the temple to be sealed 6 months after he's home. We know many of you have been praying for us and we are forever grateful for that. We love this ward and have felt blessed to get to know you. I'm ecstatic!
