5 months waiting


Today is our official fifth month of waiting for a referral. I really hope we get a referral within the next month. I'm so excited to find out if it is a boy or a girl. I want to get started on the room and supplies. Travis has his first day of classes today at law school. Thankfully orientation is over and we can settle into his normal school schedule. Jenny has moved to a new classroom at her preschool/therapy center. The transition has seemed not to bother her at all. I can't believe she is 3! Where does the time go?

Summer is Ending







I am terrible at blogging. I never remember to update! Jenny is doing great. She has had a nice summer. Knock on wood-we haven't had to go to the pediatrician since February. Travis started law school last week. He is excited to start this new adventure. I'm still in the holding pattern of work and home. On the adoption front, no referral yet. I was doing fine until about three weeks ago. At this point, it is beginning to drive me slightly crazy. We are number two on the unofficial wait list. Seeing us in that position has really made it hard for me. I just keep thinking about when the call will come, what she or he will look like, when will we get to travel, the MONEY, getting the room ready, buying clothes. . . on and on the list goes. So, hopefully the next time I post I will be announcing the referral of our new child!
