Monday we had the chance to meet and hold baby 27 hours after he was born. And yes, baby is a HE. He is the most beautiful little boy and there was just no way we were going to walk into that hospital room and not fall in love with him immediately. V and her family have been wonderful. We had the chance to sit and talk with V's mother as well as have a conversation with V's father. V's family is very supportive of V's plan for adoption. After 2 hours, we had to leave baby and V. It was not easy to say goodbye to any of them. V gave us the first hat he wore so that we had something of his while we were apart from each other. I can't explain how in awe I was to sit and watch D feed and hold baby. It took my breath away but it was peaceful at the same time.
We have been in contact with V since having baby and we know how hard it was for V to make the second decision to stick with her adoption plan, and she has. So far, things are still a go and we are all hoping December comes quickly so that baby can finally come home.
