What a wonderful...tiring week!

It started out with a bang. Of course, you've read that we got our referral and I have engrave her little face in my brain. She is our tiny, little miracle half a world away and their is a sparkle in her eyes that lets us know she's going to fit right in. The hard part will be the next 4 months of waiting. I am making lists, and then more lists and also trying to save a little money. On top of all this exciting stuff, I got braces. WHAT WAS I THINKING!! OUCH!! I'm trying not to whine but these things hurt so it's making it difficult to concentrate on anything other than my mouth. Today I ate mashed potatoes which is a big step up. Tomorrow I will graduate to solids!! More later!!

The day we've been waiting for!

We got the call today at around 2:00. Unfortunately, Chris was in a meeting so he missed the actual call but I left immediately after the call to give him the good news. We are so excited and can't wait to bring her home. She is 9 weeks old and the most beautiful little girl I've ever seen. I can't stop looking at her picture and can't wait to bring her home. It will be quite a while before we can post her pictures because we have to wait until after the rainy season for our court date.

Stilll waiting...LOL

I saw this and I just had to post it. I've come to terms with the obvious fact that we will be waiting another 5-6 months to travel. This pictures sums it up! LOL
