We had a very peaceful, restful night last night. Naomi took her scalding hot (the way she likes it) bottle and went right to sleep. AMAZING!! I laid her in her crib, she fussed for about 30 seconds, then fell fast asleep. During the night she woke up, sat up in her crib and I could not resist but to pick her up and bring he into our bed.....Such a sweet moment. She laid there, very quietly and played with her feet and my hands, the fell back to sleep til around 5AM. She woke up between Joel and me and laid there quietly and played. She says Baba (daddy) and mama (mommy) all the time!!!
Off to the adoption agency to ADOPT NAOMI!!!
Much love and we'll write more soon.
we added some pics to the last batch:

Y'all.... she looks so sweet. I can tell from the pictures she has such a sweet demeanor. I'd love to kiss on those cheeks. I'm still praying for y'all and of course rejoicing with you!!

I know it has been said a hundred times now, but she really is so beautiful. And she has such a glow, like she is just a joyful child.
Your video made Dustin cry -- that is not something that happens often.
Emmy's favorite pictures are the bathtub shot and the one where she is "knocking down" Nate. Though she also really liked the close up of her toes, saying "oh, look at her cute little toes and fingers". I'm no sure if I can claim a favorite, but I do love the way she is looking at Joel in the photo where he is almost behind her and she is turning to look at him.
Tell us more about her. It looked like she was standing supported in one photo. Is she standing? walking?
Continued prayers for another great day.
We love you! all the Hamiltons

Hello! Love the newest pictures! Jason said the one of Naomi looking back at her Daddy just made him think Naomi was thinking..."seriously dadda! we're card fans?!?" We've still yet to watch the video because of our computer, but I do know that it would make us cry. Love ya!

What a wonderfully quick process. So thankful for a peaceful night, hope you have more of those and more zzz's (it's can be difficult being in the same room with a little one). Enjoy this time in Naomi's birth country! In the blink of an eye it will be over! Much love, Heather

LOVE the pictures. She has a smile that captures your heart.
To be honest we have had a hard few days in the ministry of our church but God has used your posts and pictures to lift my spirits and bring joy to my heart.
Thank you for allowing us this opportunity to "take" this journey with you. God's richest blessings on your family.

Oh, how beautiful! We cannot wait to meet her. The children watched the video this morning and loved it. Annabel now wants to adopt all of her children. I love the experience. Thank you for sharing with us. We miss y'all. Keep sharing it makes us feel close.
love,
mimi
