AHHHHH! Oh my word she is absolutely perfect! SO beautiful! Natalee you are so loved and have lots and lots of people praying for you and anxious to meet you!! Jon & Ali we are thrilled for you! Ya'll are going to be such INCREDIBLE parents! We will still keep you in our prayers as you finalize everything! Love you all!!P.S. I did guess a boy, but when I talked about the baby I kept saying "she" so I was a little bit right :)
I'm crying tears of joy for you. What a beautiful baby girl! It's so awesome to see you holding her. She is going to look so cute in those adorable knitted hats you have.
She's beautiful!!! Can't wait to see her and hold her. I picked the kids up from choir practice tonight and said, "Guess who called?" Levi's comment was, "I know, and it's a girl!" Can't wait to have you all home! Love, Annette, Todd and kids
Congratulations! I found your blog a couple of months ago and just popped back in today to see how things were going, and what a wonderful surprise! She looks absolutely perfect and I hope you're enjoying your first night with her. Congrats again!!!
I guessed boy....but I am so glad I was wrong. She is ADORABLE!!!! Can't wait to meet her. I think we might need to plan a WILD POSSE road trip to Minnesota!!! Karen
OH, what a wonderful day yesterday was for you I am sure! I was holding my breath praying that for some reason the birth mom didn't change her mind! I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOU!!! (I know you do not know me, but I follow!) Blessings to you and your family! You soooo much deserve this little girl!
Wow - CONGRATULATIONS - what wonderful, wonderful, wonderful news! I actually dreamt last night that it was a girl, with a name that began with N (but not Natalee - which is perfect!). You guys deserve every ounce of happiness this little bundle brings you. Enjoy and cherish!
Congratulations Ali and John! Baby's rock! I'm so happy that God provided the perfect little girl to you guys. The next few weeks will be really stressful, but they're well worth it!!!
What a precious little bundle....truly a gift from God to the most deserving people I have the pleasure of knowing....much love goes out to you during this special time of getting to know your little girl...will be looking forward to more pictures and maybe meeting her someday...
Absolutely love her name...I guessed a girl...she looks so cute and has cheeks that are so yummy! She is pretty and I know will be loved so much by you! So I guess the "minature labradoodle puppy" you were going to look at...is on hold huh? Ha! Check her all over make sure she didn't get hurt when she fell from Heaven...congrats!!! Great Uncle Mike and Great Aunt Pam
I am another who teared up when reading your news. You are starting on a wonderful journey that will probably bring you the biggest joys and feelings of accomplishment of your lives.
I was hoping you'd all be home from the hospital by now (partly because I didn't want to think of you driving home on Monday, that snowy day) and I am taking the absence of posts as a sign that you are busy with the care of your newborn.
Jon & Ali, Congratulations on such a beautiful little girl! And you both have a wonder glow of joy. She is just precious and we are so happy for all of you! Kathy Aldrich and Family
Congratulations Jon and Ali. She is stunning and you deserve all the happiness in the world. I know you will enjoy all the precious moments she will bring to your life. She is a very lucky girl to have you. Chele Koch
