We have a new addition to the family! And she's not a pet or livestock (as our precious additions have been) :)
Halina "Hallie" June Vilski was born Februrary 23, 2013 at 3:16 AM, measured 19" and weighed 7 1/2 pounds. She is beautiful, calm, and a content baby.
Hallie came to us through her amazing birth mother, Erica. We love and miss Erica so much (she went home a week after Hallie was born) and we hope to see her again soon. We communicate via text and email and occasional Skype.
God has really led us down a long path that I can't say was pothole-free, but if it's His will, Hallie will be ours forever after our early September court date!
Coen is SUCH a loving big brother. He has been waiting for his own baby for quite a while and he kisses her constantly. He calls her "a little peanut" and talks about how sweet and cute she is. Still, after a month. (Phew!)
I am recommitting to this blog in order to journal Coen and Halina's childhoods, share more private and personal details of the adoption process, and show God's hand in our lives even during frustrating and trying times. Did you know that lavender acts as a de-stresser? :)
Love from our family of four! More random excerpts of life, past and present, to come soon.
