Last night, we went out and celebrated Taunya's birthday. We ate at a delicious Mexican food restaurant. Afterwards, we all went bowling. That's right-I said BOWLING. It was an absolute blast. Anyway, when the night was over and we all started to go our separate ways, someone mentioned something to the fact that, "Next time we see you guys, you will have a baby." Woah. This one hit me like a ton of bricks. It's true. We've spent many, many weekends hanging out with Brad & Taunya. Now, we're going to have a baby.
You see, right when we REALLY started hanging out with Brad & Taunya, Danny and I were trying to get pregnant. Then, when that didn't work, we started fertility treatments. There was many a weekend where we had to excuse ourselves and go upstairs so Dan could give me shots. When that didn't work, we decided to adopt domestically. Another disappointment. So, when we finally decided to adopt from China, they had just about been through it all with us. We waited for 21 months to get Landree's picture and guess what? They waited with us whether they realize it or not.
So, Taunya and Brad, thanks. Thanks for being the great friends that you are and not giving up on us! We know we couldn't have always been fun to be around. We love you guys and Taunya, HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL!!!

Thank you so much for the birthday wishes and thoughtful words and for being such great friends! We are just so happy that this is finally happening for you guys! You will be the best parents and I'm sure that once you hold Landree for the first time, you will know that she was meant for you and that it was worth the wait!! We can't wait to meet her!!
