Keegan 11 months old
















Keegan's pictures for his 1st Birthday.. we took them down town at the Myriad Gardens.. Our wonderful Friend Melicia did them. she did a fantastic job. i still can not believe that it has been almost 1 year. this month is a very exciting month for us. starting with Oct 1st (my birthday) and the day we were called to ask if we had a profile book. i was very hesitant to show because of all the past....i just did not want to get hurt again. we had faith that if this was the baby that God wanted us to have then he would be ours... we called the agency on Oct 2ND i took our profile book to them and they showed it that next day they called and said the birth mom wanted to meet w/us so that Saturday October 4Th 2008 we met with our Birth mom. She is an amazing woman and has lots of courage and she did the biggest selfless thing that a person could do. we thank her everyday in our prayers. we met with her several times before Keegan was to be born. we were not sure of her actual due date but we knew it was in October. i went to doctors appointments with her and was greeted by the nurses very nicely. although we did not like her Dr... (sorry wont give name) he did not believe that a baby should be given up for adoption. well we got our call while at judgement house at our church that she was admitted to the hospital and that they would call once she was closer to delivery. i was a guide so i did not get the call my wonderful husband did. everyone i seen said you need to find your husband.... not telling anymore.... well after the last group which i took through Judgement house i found Brian and he told me the news i about hit the floor.... we called on our way home around 12:00 am and they said go home get some rest we will call you when it s time. well we get home put stuff in the car and just as we went to get in bed the phone rang... she was at 7 and we needed to come... so we went on our way to the hospital when we arrived she was at a 10 not long now... well keegan tried to come before the Dr arrived... this was the best day ever... we had our tiny son in our arms. well Keegan will be one at the end of this month and he is walking, talking and into everything... major climber..... i hope you all have enjoyed our story.. we love you all and thank you for all your prayers....
love

3 years ago

it has been 3 years since we lost the first baby we were going to adopt. it has gotten easier since we have keegan now. on 7 -27-09 it was a rough day for me but i have a precious baby boy now and i would not trade him for the world. God's plan is amazing. there are days i still wonder how he is what he would look like and is he loved by the family he is with. but i know that he is a child of God and he is being cared for. i just thank God for Keegan and pray for Ayden all the time...

tricia

9 months old

well Lil man is 9 months old and counting.. he has learned he can stand on his own but has not tried to take a step yet... he is so cute... he has this cute little giggle... Brian has been home with him for the last couple of weeks in between school semesters and they have enjoyed themselves. he is talking away. he thinks he is king of the house... he loves to stand on the love seat and play he thinks its funny. he loves to sit in the desk chair and turn he just laughs.. he will sit and watch sports it is so funny. well we go on Tuesday for shots... i hate taking him for shots. i know they need them but really do they have to hurt so bad... he has started laying his head on the floor or on a pillow when he is getting tired. we have started planning his 1st birthday party.. we are so excited but sad to see our little one turn a year old...
