You are ALL INCREDIBLY BLESSED!!!!!! Especially Olivia! There are no words that will adequately describe the amazing emotional and spiritual family bonding that will take place in your delivery room irregardless of who holds the princess first. :) I am SO VERY, VERY happy for you Stefanie!!! I love you and admire you more than you will ever know!<br /><br />Quote *** You say, "I just don't understand how couples could be so ungrateful about that birth mom sacrificing her own flesh and blood for another family as much as she loves and wants her baby, she is doing something that she knows that will let him have a better life. They could atleast give her that much of seeing/talking to her son when she went through the emotional and physical pain that bringing a child into the world does to a mother."<br />********** I say, "AMEN" ***************<br /><br />You say, "Thundercats are GO!" <br />I say, "Ha! Awesome!! LOVE IT!!"<br /><br />~Bonnie <br />P.S. I have loved our tours of D.C. I am so glad you went!! My favorite is the WWII Memorial by day and Jefferson by night.

I read your blog sometimes. I love reading updates about Olivia! Those ultrasound pictures are insane. I can't believe how much they can see. <br /><br />My husband (Brad) and I are so excited for Olivia to join the family. Our nephews and nieces are such a huge part of our lives. She will be so lucky to have Dustinn and Val, and Bradshaw, of course. They are just about the best parents I could possibly imagine. And she's very lucky to have you.<br /><br />We live in Provo so we hope to be able to see Olivia after she's born! <br /><br />PS, my favourite is the Jefferson Memorial, too!

Thanks...Stef, you're an adorable pregnant lady! Thanks for letting me visit your blog--it sounds like the open adoption will really let you be involved...that's a very cool blessing. I kept wanting to cry as I read your post because there was so much strength and love and hope written between the lines. Life can be so ridiculously complicated, and it is good when I see that my friends are being taken care of, even when it is super bittersweet.<br /><br />I can't wait to see pictures of the little baby girl. I think she will find you so strong for all the difficult decisions you had to make for her. You are a beautiful woman, Stef.

And lots and lots of pictures! :)<br /><br />Val- The shirt stretches :) I know. I was bummed that no one said anything about the ultrasound pictures. <br /><br />Pancho- Shut the front door! hahah. Your dad likes Gossip Girl?! That is incredible. Every single guy I know thinks I'm a freak for watching it. It's just so intense. :) And do I want to know why you are Pancho? And of course, you can meet me anytime!StefanieJinellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08501326936851342628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640786534203215797.post-51366731176524952832009-07-15T16:35:11.211-07:002009-07-15T16:35:11.211-07:00Hi.

He's a unique man. I'm the one Val is usually quoting when she says BORING! We/My family and I would love to meet you in person some time. I feel like I know you already from the blog. :D <br />Hope to see you soon!Panchohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939609826862478335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640786534203215797.post-59882817280121492422009-07-15T12:51:27.192-07:002009-07-15T12:51:27.192-07:00I just have to point out, the D.C. shirt Stefanie ...I just have to point out, the D.C. shirt Stefanie is wearing is a size SMALL.

I love my Faye, and I worry everyday about how our future is going to look. I worry about whether or not I'm being a good mommy and whether or not I'll ever be able to fully support her without having to live with family. I know in my heart that I will be able to because I want it that badly, but it's a struggle. Olivia will be taken care of s well. You better call me when you have her. :P I want pictures too.Phoenix Azurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09892774551232566932noreply@blogger.com
