Introducing Miles Oliver Blackburn!

God is so good, and we are so blessed!  This child is precious! What a gift!  Miles was the last baby to arrive at the government office today.  The orphanage official brought him in and handed him to us immediately.  He didn't cry at first.  Later, when Jason took him from me he cried a little, but we pulled out the Cheerios so he and Jason are big buddies now.  Once back in the room we peeled off four layers of clothes including some split pants.  He is much smaller than I anticipated.  We are going to have to make a trip to Wal-Mart tonight or tomorrow for some smaller clothes.  He is very content and has enjoyed checking everything out.  Madeline and Mac even got a few smiles out of him this afternoon!  He appears to be very calm which is pretty foreign to us, but we are loving his easy-going personality.  Thanks so much for your prayers.  Enjoy the pictures!
