Welcome Charlie!

December 27th, 2011 was a day to remember!  Our sweet little Charlie was born at 2:20 p.m. at the American Fork Hospital.  Here he is weighing in at 7 lbs. 3 oz., and 20 inches long.

Here are the first few moments with Mom.  We got to be there at the hospital when he was born!

First moments with Dad.

Placement day was two days later.  It was bittersweet, as we were sad for our sweet birthmother, who we love, but we were so happy to begin our family.

Here's our first family photo!  Jared said on the way home that it was the happiest he's ever been in his life!  This sweet little baby has brought us indescribable joy!

When we got home from the hospital my mom had decorated the house with balloons and banners.  It was so fun!

This cute reindeer outfit was a gift from Charlie's birth mother.  She will always be so dear to us.
