First Home Study Visit

Well, we survived our first home study visit last night. Everything went really well. Only a few things we need to do around the house. My fingerprints were rejected because they weren't clear enough and need to be redone as well. Scott (our social worker) was kind enough to give us some more paperwork to fill out :) We'll be having one more home visit and one more office visit and then I think that should just about do it-hopefully in another month we'll officially be "waiting".

Scott questioned T last night to see how he feels about everything. That went good as well, T seems excited...of course, the prospect of a permanent play mate would seem appealing to any child...once she's here and breaking his Lego creations he might not feel the same way!

Well that's all for now!

Welcome!

So, I've decided to start a blog, not only for my own personal reflection, but also to keep everyone updated on the journey through this next phase of our lives...comments and feedback are welcome!

Most of you already know, but for those that don't, we have decided to expand our little family by one more through adoption :) We are almost through with the approval process... still filling out odds and ends of paperwork, waiting for background checks, etc...and to think the official "waiting" period hasn't even begun!
