These weeks have been passing so quickly! I can’t believe it’s already April! I finished putting the organizers up in the nursery closet. We don’t have a dresser, but I don’t think we’ll need one with these handy shelves and buckets. I’m almost packed – I have all the baby stuff in a suitcase, but…
I can’t believe it’s less than 20 days until baby’s due date! The butterflies are REALLY acting up now :). I’m so excited I can barely stand myself!
I got these lovely books from another adoptive mama: I can’t wait to read them to our child one day!
We raised $1,963!!!! Thanks so much to everyone who participated! We really appreciate your help in raising money for our adoption, and are very grateful for your generosity. Thanks especially to everyone who donated the beautiful items for this auction. I have been blessed with a very talented and generous group of family and friends,…
Don’t forget, our auction starts this Friday at 9 am ET. If you haven’t seen the little sneak peak I posted yesterday, check it out! This is definitely starting to feel real. I bought a plane ticket home a couple days ago, for one week before the baby’s due date. So, April 8th, I’m flying…
Okay, the month of February completely got away from me! I was thinking we still had a couple weeks until our next auction, but it’s NEXT WEEK!!! Oh my. We did so well in our first auction, raising over $3,000. There were a lot of people who missed the auction, who were out of town…
Someone shaved yesterday :). Chris went to trim his beard before we headed out to get him a haircut, and accidentally ended up shaving it all off by putting it on the wrong setting. Whoops! So, he went from this: To this: He was messing with me and would only smile after I took the picture.…
All of the paperwork on our end is done, we’ve had our 3 meetings with our social worker (SW), and finally finished our health and fire inspections! Our SW is awesome – she said “Don’t hold me to this, but I’ll probably be finished writing your homestudy within the week. Don’t worry though, if birthmom…
The auction was an overwhelming success! Thanks to everyone’s generosity, we were able to raise over $3,000 towards our adoption fund!!!! We are absolutely blown away! I had no idea how this would go, and it definitely exceeded our expectations. I sincerely thank each and every one of you for the support you have provided…
At the end of July last year, we decided that we wouldn’t be able to make it home to Louisiana for Christmas. Chris had started a new job in April and was still building up vacation time and we just wouldn’t have enough to make the trip home. I wasn’t too broken up about it,…
