| Mommy and daughter united for the first time. |

| Together as a family for the first time |
We went to the Civil Affairs Building at 10am. She was waiting for us in the room when we walked in. She didn't cry at all. She just kept studying the situation. She took to Sherry right away but didn't know what to think about me, though she kept a watchful eye out for me.
...more to come

I praise God for this glorious moment that we have prayed for and waited for so long! What an awesome blessing to see the first pictures of Lauren with you! It has been a long road and God has honored your love and faithfulness. What a beautiful little girl to love!
The new Nana!
Tears and more happy tears. At last! A new journey begins. She is beautiful Momma. Dad, don't worry she will soon be a Daddy's girl. Trace's comment was that her hair is not sticking up with bows in it! Hurry home! Cindy and Aunt Sue
Sherry she is beautiful! It is such a blessing to see you holding her and the three of you as a family. God has blessed Lauren with an awesome family as well as blessing you and Chad with a beautiful daughter. Prayers and love for your family. Pat M.

What a great looking family! She is precious. Can't wait to meet her!
Ohhhhh Sherry and Chad!!! I agree with what another post...all three of you are glowing!! Of course I started crying as soon as I saw your pictures! Jeff and I were commenting on how sweet her cheeks are!! Avenlea says..awwwww she is so cute!!
Love you guys and cannot wait to meet your new family member!!
Love, Jeff, Elizabeth, Avenlea and Andersen
Okay, my first thought was, "OH MY GOODNESS! She is adorable!" Even without bows! LOL! My second thought is that Chad, you look so frustrated! LOL! Don't worry, bro, she'll warm up to you, I'm sure. Can you blame her? Not only is she not around men too much, she's definitely never seen a pale redhead with scruffy red facial hair! She probably thinks you look like a dragon! LOL! Oh, I can't wait to see her! I am so glad she took to Sherry so well. Chad, I hope you get feeling better, too! We love you all!
