Just wanted to share my family's joy with you all... we have been blessed with a beautiful, healthy new baby girl! We got a call from our adoption agency just over a week ago that this girl had been born on Aug 2, so we became a family of four practically overnight. We are thrilled, this awesome baby girl has found a family, my 5 1/2-year-old daughter loves being a big sister, and all is well. I'd tell you the new one's name, but we still haven't decided. She's a really great baby, a true master of babyhood. Here are a few photos:

Wow, so gorgeous, so precious, and an instant big sister with a ready kiss. Man this is a great occasion. Did I miss the name? Okay, you don't have one yet. That's why we have the poll at the top. I bet you could get a bunch of Olfer's to vote on anything.

Congratulations Todd, and to your wife, and to your older daughter, but especially to your new baby girl, she's gorgeous.

Beautiful Todd, so very beautiful, and I think she is also a truly lucky little girl for fate to have been so kind as to deliver her to your lovely family.

Well Done!

Cheers

Kim

Congrats Todd, she looks beautiful!

Don't worry about the name, it took us 3 months to find a name for our new baby girl!

Congratulations Todd! I'm lighting up a virtual, pink, bubblegum cigar right now!

For a name, how about Rosewood Rose?
