Have always loved the name Adaline, no matter how it's pronounced. One of my mom's friends from Bible school was named Adeline (pronounced Adda Line) and had this glamorous, ladylike Southern drawl. I was enamored as a kid.
And darn. I just love love love the name Phoebe – I noticed it on your other list. NO ONE in my family will even give it the time of day for our next mei mei. Grrr.
Your new precious Esther Adaline is beautiful, just like her name and sister Poppy! Can't wait to here you have your TAs for your girls! Thank you for sharing your journey with us again!

We will be praying for your family and following every step 🙂 Thank you for sharing your joy, it helps me believe that God may have a miracle for our family too!
Your Ester (and Poppy) are BEAUTIFUL! We brought home our Lily 2008 with TOF (repaired). Even repaired she weighed a BIG whopping 19 lbs. at 21 months old. I am impressed without proper repair Ester is not more blue in color. We have some really blue baby pics of Lily before repair. Our Lily was at New Day and was brought home just before your nephew, Cole. They were the last 2 babies of 2008 to come home I believe (along with Mia who left when Lily did). Your faith is empowering
