6 months and counting

So far this "pregnancy" has been a breeze... no morning sickness, no aches, no pains... some tears, but mostly thankful that we are in que for our baby girl!
6 months we've been waiting for our referral... I can't believe it!

My heart is full


Wanted to write a quick post. We have a pretty busy weekend coming up. Wanted to wish everyone a happy heart day! Some people think that this is just a hallmark holiday. I tend to agree, but still want to let my loved ones know that they are loved on valentines day and always.

Also wanted to welcome a new member to our family. My cousin gave birth to her second baby boy on Wednesday. Welcome to the world Allister (sp??) still have to check on that one. Their first son Declan is thrilled with his new big brother role. I am pleased to report that everyone is happy and healthy.
My adoptive mommy friend Krista and her husband seem to be settling into parenthood rather well. Congratulations!
My husband is home from yet another business trip.
My family is all happy and healthy. As I am sure you all know, we are eagerly awaiting our Lauryn's arrival. Therefore, my heart is full!
I got this email at work today. I love it, and wanted to share it.

Someone will always be prettier.
Someone will always be smarter.
Some of their houses will be bigger.
Some will drive a better car.
Their children will do better in school.
And their husband will fix more things around the house.
So let it go, and love you and your circumstances.
Think about it!
The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart.
The most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children.
The richest woman you know, she's got the car, the house, the clothes~ might be lonely.
And the word says, 'If I have not Love, I am nothing.' So, again, love you. Love who you are. Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say, 'I am too Blessed to be Stressed
and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!'
'Winners make things happen~~ Losers let things happen.' Be 'Blessed'

It just keeps getting better!


Although there isn't anything new to report on our end... We are still waiting and busy trying to decide the details of the nursery. We have all the time and let me tell you a million ideas!

We will begin working on the nursery in the summer. I can't wait!

On a really happy note my adoptive mommy friend and her husband, had their forever family day and they are in the process of flying home. I can not put into words how happy it makes me.

This adoption roller coaster is a crazy ride. The blogs that people publish are like counselling!

I think everyone who is going through this can relate. There have been a couple of blogs that I follow like a religion and "the robinsons are waiting" is an amazing read! Their journey has been overwhelming and exciting! It brings to reality that we all have babies out there and soon, we will be celebrating our magic moments, our forever family days and the long flight home.

Welcome Home Robinson Family of 3! Can't wait to read the next part of your journey. I also can't wait for you to read ours!

And baby makes 3!
