Have a safe and wonderful trip home with you babies, OWJ.

I have to tell you though.....I know a few woman who (like you) tried everything under the sun to get pregnant and couldn't, and so....they adopted. And THEN....they got pregnant!

Wow, just think, if OWJ gets pregnant right away, by this time next year she will have 3 kids under the age of one!!

OWJ, you might want to keep OWJ2 at an arm's length for a while.

Youzer!!!

My best friend has 4 granddaughters under the age of 3. But, she gets to go home at the end of the day or night!

Maybe OWJ2 should be responsible for all the late night feedings

Or maybe each OWJ s/b assigned a baby, perhaps an even/odd system? OWJ1 could feed OWJ3, while OWJ2 could feed OWJ4.

You see, OWJ, we've got it all figured out for you.

Congrats OWJ! I'm so happy your babies are already big enough to go home!

These children are so lucky, to have a bio mom who was brave enough & loved enough to give her children up for a better life than she could provide, and their real mom, who is brave enough & loved them enough to await their arrival, bring them home from Iowa and give them the best life can offer.

Love from all ends, what fortunate children Lainey and Rachel are!

BTW, 2 of my dearest friends are named Lainey (from college) and Rachel (from high school)! Lovely names!

Been following the babies and just want to add continued good wishes. I'm so glad that they are thriving and growing, and that they are blessed with great parents.

Thanks, P_M, I hadn't seen the thread with the pictures yet.

Beautiful family you are, OWJ. The pictures brought tears to my eyes. Blessings to you and yours.
