So, why would we get pics of a foster baby with Fresh Art? Cuz he's not really a foster baby in the true sense. If we were to update our status on FB, it would read, "It's complicated." He is a potential adoption that we have physical custody of already. I can't go into much more but wanted to give you a little more info than I have at this point.
We should know more in a few months. And until then, you can't see his cute little face. Or know his name. From hence forth he shall be known as Big D.
Is he ours? No, not yet. Are we pretty much acting as though he is? Yep. Doesn't do anybody any good not to, especially him. He needs to bond and attach to someone while this whole thing gets worked out and I just happen to be willing to chew on his face enough to make the bond happen.
So, what if we bond and attach and it doesn't work out? Not sure, to be honest. Not going there. No need to expect the worst.
And I promise if all goes as planned/prayed for/hoped for, I will spend several blog posts showing you the pics you've missed thus far. Cuz, holy crap, this kid is ridiculous. 100% worth the wait.

Awwwwww! Love this post :)
Love that beautiful hair! Praying for you on this!
I'm just ecstatic right now. Praying and impatiently waiting for updates as you walk through this process. Have fun lovin on that delicious baby
Don't know what else to say other than BLESS YOU! It takes a strong person to love a baby like he is your own, without the confirmation of him being your own - and you are doing it for the 2nd time. You and Russ are both exceptional people and anyone that is having a hard time taking a leap of faith needs to read this blog. Praying for you....
I enjoy this post, but I'm not gonna lie. I mostly enjoy your thumb.
So excited for you all!!!!!! yeaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!
Praying with everything in me that it works out. Because I've been this side of "we bonded and it didn't work out," and it was extremely painful and I wouldn't wish THAT on my worst enemy, let alone an AWESOME foster family. So praying every day that this goes through and Big D becomes a Mohr! :)
Oh my goodness he's a sweetie. You're not the only one who wants to chew his face... just the only one allowed to :-). Anyway definitely praying for whatever is best for D, but I truly believe it's with you guys, so know that I"m really praying that he ends up a Mohr. CONGRATS AGAIN!
Ahhhhh, Katie! I love this post!!!!! And I am in tears seeing that pic of him in your arms knowing a bit what you have gone through thus far...I am praying for you guys and I think you guys are pretty amazing! Going forward full throttle not knowing what the future holds! Blessings on you and your family! Love to you guys!!
