It' a girl!!!!

On January 5th we were contacted by our caseworker that there was a birthmom trying to get ahold of us. Shortly after the phone call we were emailed by the birthmom. We exchanged a few emails that night and talked to her on the phone the next day, where she said she would like to help us start our family.

We decided to make a trip to Dayton Nevada a few days later to meet with her and her family. At the time she was 8 months along but felt like she could give birth at any time.

Shortly after coming home she informed us that she could go into labor within the week, so we scrambled to get enough baby stuff to get by until we found out the sex. On Thursday at 7:15 am we got a call that she was on her way to the hospital. We thought we would be driving to Nevada that day, but the hospital would not admit her since she was not dilated enough. She then continued to have contractions all through the weekend. On Monday she went to her weekly doctors appointment and the doctor thought she was still a few weeks from having the baby. A few hours after her appointment she started going into labor so we hurried and left for Reno.

At 9:23 pm Charlie Anne Money was born!!!
5lbs 12 oz. and 18 inches long
