Updates

Our child abuse clearances apparently came through March 8th!! wooohooo!! Our social worker updated the homestudy with the revisions that our agency requested and has already sent it back to them for final review!! I went to the city Monday to get the required documents certified, so all we need right now is copies of the homestudy!! Soooooo close!!! I've made the required number of copies of all the dossier documents (except the homestudy) already. I am getting so excited! Can't wait to send that package off to the agency and get on the waiting list already. I know the numbers have gone up a bit since the end of January when the end of the list was at #24, and I think I just read somewhere that someone who just got on the baby girl list is at #31 and I also read that the estimated wait, once you get on the waiting list until you get a referral is 8-12 months now for an infant girl. I forget what it was for an infant boy, but it was about half I think and toddler girl/boy was about the same as infant boy. Our homestudy says 0-36 months so I believe we can change our preference if we decide to down the line for a toddler girl (24-36 months) should we choose to. I am also REALLY thinking about going back to Ethiopia to adopt our second child still (and dropping out of China). When it comes right down to it.. I want a child in this house.. period.

ANYWAY.. I made another little dress over the weekend and I FINALLY finished crocheting that little blanket I previously posted about. I found another half finished crocheted baby blanket in the closet so I'm working on finishing that too. Trying to keep busy so I don't obsess over getting on the waiting list too much! hahaha

I think that's all for now. Not must else going on.
Peace.
