We were up just a few minutes before Olivia was on Christmas Day, so we just sat in the living room and marveled at how our lives have changed over the past four months. She has brought such happiness to our whole family. To think that God chose to bless us with this precious child is simply amazing. Tears came to my eyes as I thought about all the babies that still reside in the orphanages. We then thought of how grateful we are to Olivia's birth mother for being so selfless to give this baby up so that Olivia might have a blessed life!!! The beauty part is that God knew this the whole time!!! The gift that meant the most was definitely Olivia's gift from her daddy. I had no idea what it was until Christmas Day. We opened the card first and it said : "Olivia, my love reaches beyond the stars for you!!! " Tyler had a star named after her!!! The last picture is the Star Registry Certificate they send along with its exact location in the galaxy!! A truly awesome gift she can keep forever!!! God truly chose two ordinary people to bless with an extraordinary gift!!!

PS get used to Tyler teaching Olivia all kinds of dangerous things--that's what Daddys are so good at. It makes me nearly crazy!
Tyler, you did good! Steph, he's just teaching her to trust him with the cabinet trick! He'll catch her everytime!
Love you both,
