Adoption News

Well Brooke and Lexy had school for two days this week...and three snow days!! At this rate we are going to have snow on the ground until April!

Flurries are flying around today so it'll be another day of sitting on the couch in our jammies! There's lots we could be accomplishing around the house but....welll...we're lazy :-)

Adoption update:
I FINALLY talked with the adoption agency worker today to go over the packet of papers that she sent. We have to gather some paperwork, sign some releases and send it all back to her now. She also said that she's going to go ahead and send out our adoption paperwork packet on Monday (even though technically she's supposed to wait to see if our past foster agencies have anything bad to say about us) so that we can get a head start on it. She's still thinking that we'll be able to do an update instead of a full homestudy which is exciting since that will take less time and $$!

I got a reply to my e-mail about the three girls. I had asked if there had been much interest in them...there has been but a lot of it has been from out of state and the girls aren't available for out-of-state adoption so good news. They have really been on my mind lately. I've been planning out room arrangements/decorations/bedding, looking at bigger houses (on the internet and driving by) and Mike even indulged my insanity by letting me buy a couple of extra backpacks (that we just might need next year) that were on sale. :-)
