Grant's a big brother!

A few weeks ago we were called to fly to Wyoming to pick up a newborn baby boy that a birth family had picked us to adopt. We named him Chase and he's absolutely beautiful. We feel so blessed and are so happy. He's such a great addition to our little family. Grant loves to pet his head when he cries and offers to share his beloved blankets with him. He likes to feed him and rock him too. We are thrilled! Thank you to everyone who has helped us in so many ways with our adoption.
