Kade Malachi De Jong

We would like to introduce the newest member of our family Kade Malachi De Jong! We were able to pick him up at 2:00 today! So far he seems to be a very good baby.
We can't wait for all of you to meet him.
God is amazing and he has blessed us so much!
We will keep you all updated with pictures while we are down here in North Carolina.
Thanks so much for all the prayers!
Dustin, Ashley and Kade

I've been waiting all day for these! Oh he is cute! He has really light skin- but that African nose! :) I am excited to meet him! Congratulations and enjoy your first night with him and your time with just him- before family and friends bombard you! :)

Oh, he is beautiful! Julie was probably getting sick of me yesterday, because I kept asking if she'd heard anything. I could barely stand myself anymore. Thank you for updating with pictures! I already told Karter all about his new little friend, and Brent has been watching the weather in NC to make sure that you guys are OK.
Have a safe trip back!
Brent, Kelli & Karter
