Macoy or McCoy Bone

(We haven't decided how to spell his name yet, any ideas would be greatly appreciated)

The story of Macoy/McCoy.
On March 10 around 10:30 p.m. I was updating this blog. The pictures I was downloading was taking forever and I kept loosing them for some reason. I got mad canceled it all and jumped on facebook. I know I'm one of those facebook junkies but this time I was soooo glad I did. Shortly after logging in, I had a message pop up from a nail client then became a friend from years ago. She asked if it was Camille? I said yes. She said are you guys adopting again? I said yes, we are just stating the process. She said I am pregnant and want to give it up for adoption? I was speechless. I wanted to jump, cry, run around my house screaming, and so on. I couldn't believe it was happening again. I asked, are you sure? She said yes and then she said the most selfless and hardest thing a mother could ever say. I can't raise this baby and I can't aboard it, and I know how bad you guys have wanted a baby. She was a client of mine when Kyle and I was first trying to have kids on our own. She seen the frustration and devastation. At that time she jokingly said she would love to have a kid for us. Neither of us thought it would come true.
This mother has been through so much lately but yet she is doing everything she can to make sure our baby is taking care of. She told us up front she wanted us in the delivery room, Kyle to cut the cord, she wanted Kyle and I, when he could to go to all the doctor appointments. She wanted us to experience as much as we could as if I was caring it. She is always saying this is your child, I am just bringing it into the world for you. Whenever someone asks what she is having or what the name is, she always says ask the mom/parents. I love that.
This mom is an amazing women, she has 3 kids already and is doing all she can to raise them to her best. She is always putting herself first. Like I said earlier, she has been through A LOT this last year and she has come a long way. She is strong, beautiful, loving, caring, selfless, thoughtful, kind, amazing and a wonderful mother. Kyle and I are forever in dept to her. She made another wish come true. I couldn't put into words what she has given us/me. Another chance to be a mom, is priceless. I am grateful she trusts us with her child. We want to thank her publicly from the bottom of our heart.

Here is some ultrasound pictures. He is currently 2 lbs 4 oz and is measuring around 28 weeks. Now if we can just keep him in there where it's nice and warm and quite. :)

Sorry I had to take a picture with my camera to get them on the computer. Not the greatest pictures.
Handsome boy

This is when we found out the gender, ALL BOY.

Again when he was smaller, I just love his foot had to show it off.
