Gotcha Day Number Four

Ok- for those of you wondering how we told Eli about his new baby sister....

Thursday night last week, as I was tucking Eli into bed, I mentioned that maybe we would get a call about his brother or sister the next day.  He sat up quite excited and said, "Mommy!! It is going to be tomorrow!! They are just waiting for my Gotcha Day!!"

Sure enough, the next afternoon, a few hours before Eli got home from school and we were going to celebrate Gotcha Day number 4, we received "the call."

Our adoption specialist returned our call at 4:30 and we formally accepted her by 4:45pm.  So, after supper, we pulled out his ice cream cake, lit the candles and sang Happy Gotcha Day.... Well, a picture is worth a thousand words.... you can see for yourself...
