Here is who we have been waiting for!!!
The nannies brought her in after a very long train ride. Abigail came the furthest distance to meet us. This was the hand off to us from the nannies. We go tomorrow to sign papers which makes Abigail officially ours.
We had a great evening together and took a bath (didn't like the bath) but liked the snuggling after. We ate dinner, Pizza Hut take out, in our room that Dalton and I went and brought back. Ordering at a restaurant is always an adventure!
Abigail played a little patty cake with Mom which was fun to see.
(there is no sound)
We even ventured out for a nighttime sweat... oops I mean stroll. Yes it is very hot and humid here. We get lulled into thinking it is comfortable because we are in an air conditioned hotel and then we hit the front doors and wow.. HOT AND MUGGY!
Well it is time for Dad to go to bed.. enough editing videos... Mom and Abigail are fast asleep. Both had a very big day today.
Thanks for praying for us! It sure does mean a lot to us. BTW Ruth loves to read the comments so keep them coming.
Very Proud Baba, Brian

WOW what a moment!!! Thank you so much for sharing with us. We can not wait to meet her. She is absolutely precious. LOVE THE VIDEO. Have a wonderful Day.
What could possibly be sweeter than seeing a family created right before your eyes? I only wish the boys had jumped into the picture, so we could have seen their expressions, too (oh, wait -- that's what MY boys did to my girls and I suggested that might be a bit overwhelming to Abigail -- you have such smart sons!).
What a little beauty you have there. I loved how the nanny came up to put her little jacket on her, and gave you the panda bear. I'm sure it was very hard to let her go, as I know they have to get attached to the children.
I'm glad you're sleeping now, every day gets a little easier and Abigail's personality will emerge more every day also.
So happy for you all!
Oh, it was fun seeing Ruth, Abigail & some of the boys in Alyson & Ford's video today.
Hey guys! it took me a long time to figure out how to leave a comment...I'm new at this but anyway...Oh how wonderful to see those videos and pictures. It was a little hard to see through the tears, though. We are so happy for you all. lOVED the post and pic from Dalton! Praying for you every day...every moment almost...
stayed up late last night waiting..... finally gave in and got some sleep- so glad and filled with joy to see the videos and pictures and posts this morning.
Thank you all for sharing with us in this adventure.
She is just precious.
Welcome to the Webb family Abigail-
*tears of happiness* I can't even imagine how amazing that must have been to take Abigail in your arms for the very first time and hold her there, close to your heart, forever...
This is the third time in my life that I find myself at a loss for words. I am just overwhelmed with joy!

Hallelujah for modern technology!!! I loved, loved, loved the videos....I felt like I could be there with you to share in your joy!!! My eyes just welled up with tears of thankfulness that this day was fulfilled just as God willed to be!!!
Now I can't wait to see you all in person!!! Enjoy getting to know each other and China and I will see you all at the airport!!!
I refreshed last night over and over and then finally had my chance this evening to see 3 marvelous posts starring an adorable little girl. You love comes through in the vid and photos. Can't wait to meet her.
Absolutely beautiful. I loved the video of you receiving her from the nannies. I also like pat-a-cake. She is so perfect. I can't wait to see her in person.
Enjoy every moment of family time before you are bombarded when you return! I will definitely be bombarding;)
This is an absolutely fabulous day! Congratulations on becoming a family of six! I read the kids your blog this morning over breakfast and couldn't help crying for joy. Praise God for Abigail and the Webb family! We can't wait to see you on your return. Eat some noodles for us.

I am so thrilled for your family. Those boys are going to be such fantastic big brothers. Just think of all the things they will learn from their new little sister.
Thank you all so much for taking the time to post the videos and pictures when I know you are all so exhausted. We love seeing them.
congrats she is beautiful and has a wonderful big brother.
