6 Months Today Since We Were Logged-In!!!

We have been patiently waiting 6 months today. Our anticipation of traveling grows stronger by the day as we see more and more families receive their referrals. It is our hope that the wait will speed up and we will have Audrey before next Christmas. We are very fortunate to have our wonderful family and friends, who are so supportive while we wait. I continue to work on her nursery, but I have to say, I have had no problem finding beautiful dresses for her to wear. I just can't wait until she's in them!!!

Wonderful gifts from my Secret Pal!!!

I belong to a group of Chinese adoptive moms, and for the last several months we have had a secret pal exchange. I just wanted to share a few of the wonderful gifts I have received. This sure is making the time go by so much faster.

Happy New Year!!

We started this process to adopt our daughter in March of 2006. We were officially logged In July 25,2006. The wait was under 12 months at that time. Actually, for me the time is flying by. I can't believe we will be logged-in 6 months on 1/25/07. We have managed to stay very busy with our boys, family and friends.

I began Audrey's nursery in late Sept. and it's almost complete, just a little tweaking so it will be just right.
