Jonathan and Rachel, our dear friends, have been on this adoption road for awhile now. After three failed adoptions this past year, it's been a heart wrenching process. We've grieved and hoped and prayed with them.
And we are so excited to share that the Lord has graciously given them two adorable daughters. Chloe Justice and Mercy Dawn were born on Monday, December 19th and J & R brought them home yesterday! Chloe was 6 pounds, 13.7 ounces and 19 inches. Mercy was 6 pounds, 8 ounces and 18.5 inches. Two really healthy girls! What a great Christmas gift!
When asked what we should tell folks about them, they said "the cutest twins ever born and they have sweet curly hair!" We went to meet them last night...

Eli wore his Twins shirt to meet his new friends!
Unca Jonathan is one of Eli's favs.
And my heart is so joyful when I look at these two photos... they are precious!
We didn't get to hold them (yet) because these girls really need to bond with their mommy and daddy for these first few hours. But soon we will be loving on these two!
I'm coordinating meals for them so let me know if you'd like to help. And if you happen to have a lot of diapers or formula or twin things laying around you want to give to them, Chloe and Mercy could put it to good use! We'll have a shower for them on Sunday, January 8th as well.
Congratulations friends!

Absolutely beautiful little girls! Chole and Mercy, perfect names!
And Mr. Eli definitely had some good fashion sense to wear that shirt. ;)
