Announcing our baby daughter Grace Minshan Coombs

We got Gracie at about 3:30 p.m. today. Everything went very well. She's had a bath and is taking a bottle now. Here are some photos of her back in our room after her bath. I'll try to post more later from her actual Gotcha time later.

Enjoy, 'cause we are!

Take care, Chrissie

I've been down in Columbus for a day; but I've sure been wondering about you.  These pictures are wonderful!  I just want to hold her!  Enjoy every precious moment.  Jan

Oooooooooo I am so excited for you!  She is a beautiful little girl!  I am sure that all the fears, anxiety, and worries have been blown away by those bright dark eyes looking back at you!  Congratulations!  Now your real worries can begin, another beautiful daughter to keep away from the boys!

A little prayer for you and your traveling families.  Take Care!

Father of the fatherless, you give your children a home in which to dwell; and like a loving mother you gather us into your household. We give you thanks for the child who has come to bless this family and for the parents who have taken this child to be their own. By the power of your Holy Spirit, continue to fill Mary and Roger with trust, understanding and affection; and, through this child in our midst, enable us better to know the mystery that we are all your children by adoption; through Jesus Christ our Lord."
