| This is his room from the doorway. |
 |
| This rocking chair belonged to my grandpa Art (who Anthony is named after) and was lovingly re-covered by Chris' dad! We love it! |
 |
| Picture was taken before we got blackout curtains for the room, obviously! :-) |
 |
| The two pictures are from Etsy; the number picture references the Bible verse from Matthew 10:30 ("the very hairs on your head are numbered") and the alphabet picture references Deuteronomy 6:6-9 ("write them on the door posts of your house"). Chris' parents gave Chris Jimmy Fallon's "Dada" book! |
 |
| I painted this dog at a pottery painting place when my mom and aunts took me to Portland on my 30th birthday! Chris' brother Brian and sister-in-law Marissa gave Anthony this plant ("a succulent plant for a succulent baby"). The sign and the lampshade are both from Etsy. |
 |
| My great friend and college roommate Kellie put the paw print decals up all over the place! We love them! |
 |
| This big dog is a humidifier! |
 |
| The book was a gift for Anthony from his sweet birth mom! The tiger shoes are from his Nana (my mom) and the blue sneakers are from his birth mom's sister and mom! |
 |
| This dog is fake! Doesn't it look real? It belonged to Sarah's Nana and Papa, and she's always loved it! |
 |
| We clung to this Bible verse throughout the adoption process: "For this child I prayed, and the Lord has answered my prayer." Our great friend Katie generously took this and many of the other professional pictures on this site...the blurry ones are all ours :-) |
We also set up an area downstairs for the swing/rocker/toys/etc. Here it is!
 |
| This picture was taken on our first night home! |
 |
| This figurine on top of the bookshelf was from my parents; it matches the figurines Chris gave on our wedding day and on our one year anniversary! |
 |
| This "I grew in their heart" picture was a gift from the Etsy shop who made the pictures with the numbers and alphabet Bible verses in Anthony's bedroom - we love it! |
