Olesia


This was the first time I got to feel Nixon move :) I love the look on all of our faces!
 So this post is way way past due!! I have needed to post these pics for months (obviously, there is a christmas tree in the background : ) Better late than never.
I just wanted everyone to see our Beautiful Birthmom Olesia. Isn't she so beautiful!! She seriously is so amazing. She is one strong strong  girl.  She is very independent. She laughs alot : )  She is more reserved like Jesse is which I love that about her. She loves peanut M&M's. She is Russian. She speaks Russian (Its amazing to hear her). She was also adopted : ) We love adoption !! She is not very tall maybe 5' 1 ( birthdad is 6'5 so maybe this little guy will have some height :) She is busy working and also going to school. She has an amazing family. She is so stinking cute with Henslee. (Henslee is almost as big as Olesia :) She is very appreciative. She is beautiful inside and out!  These are just a few fun facts about Olesia. I am so super excited to get to know her more. I love when we get to see her. I wish we lived closer so we could see her more. I am excited to go through this journey with her. I know there are so many things I can learn from her. I know this is going to be so hard for her. I can't begin to imagine. I am so glad there is a Heavenly Father who loves her so much and will get her through this.  I am glad I get to be by her side through this whole journey. The act of placing a baby for adoption is the most unselfish thing a person could do.  I know she is thinking more about her little boy than herself. That shows you so much about what an amazing and beautiful person she is. Without her sacrifice and her courage our family would not be able to grow into a family of 4.  I am so grateful for our birthmom Olesia. She is doing something for us that we cannot do for ourselves. She is a Rock. We love her more than anyone will ever know. I am excited to have her be a part of our forever family.

So excited for you guys! Your birthmom sounds so awesome. He will be a cute little guy. I had to laugh when I read Riley's comment, because I was honestly thinking the same thing... haha Is this what happens when you become a pharmacist?
