CONGRATULATIONS! I had no idea you two were expecting! (yes, this counts as expecting)
:stork:
How has the adoption experience been for you? Is Tanner adopted too? My sister keeps going back and forth between adoption and sperm donor.

Checking in finally! Sorry it's taken me so long!
Athena has us both completely wrapped around her little fingers. She's a very good baby. Nights are a little rough since the wife is a heavy sleeper and the baby tends to fuss more then. During the day you won't hear a peep out of her unless she's hungry. Big brother adores her! He wants to hold her allllllllll the time.
Yesterday we had a TON of people over, and it was nice, but also... not. haha! I kind of want to just be left alone with her for a bit. But no one overstays, so that's nice. I was afraid people would show up and just LINGER. But they don't so it's okay.
She has a check up today! She's looking a little yellow but other than that, there's been no problems with her health-wise.
She isn't considered premature, as she was born at 37 weeks. Even most induced labors are at 36 weeks. She's just a tiny wisp of a thing. A lot of the guys are too scared to hold her haha. But she's VERY strong, she lifts her head and turns it. She has a good set of lungs too! LOL
As far as the adoption story goes... Well we both knew we wanted kids (I already had a son) and we were open to all the ways to "get" more... AI, IVF, adopting. A friend of ours hit a rough patch and this opportunity to let another tiny life join our family came up, and it was sort of like fate. We originally had wanted to wait... We've only been married 6 months this month. In fact we got married when we did so that we would be in a better position to adopt. That may sound silly but. When you know, you know, and when you learn more things... Well! LOL. The process was MUCH faster for us because we didn't have to deal with the waiting and the searching most adoptive parents have to deal with. We already knew the birthmother (in fact is one of my best friends) and so that alone sped everything along a bit faster. That... and if you throw enough money at the right lawyers you'll get things done faster. It sounds awful but that's how it works. Right now she is just in our custody... Her birthmother and biological dad have both signed papers terminating their parental rights. Now we wait for the adoption to become official.
Here are some more pictures of her.
