It is Official!!!!!

We finally can see it for ourselves that the Chinese Government is done reviewing our paperwork. So come on referral... Speed needs to be on our side.

One more Step

One last step now. Get our BABY CHINA!!! We received notice from our agency yesterday that we are officially out of review!!! We are so excited one last step and that step is going to China. We dont know how long that will be but compared to last week we are so excited that we finally received some kind of news even though it is a small step it is a step.

4 more years

4 more years is what the rumors are saying!!! I will be 45 years old Norman will be 51... What sould we do??? Is the big question!!!! I feel our lives have been a stand still. Trying to save money for our little girl have been our focus for the past almost 2 years since we started this journey. 4 more years means we will again be voting for a different president, Marie will already be married ( that is a co-worker of mine) we keep joking that I will finally need a babysiter for her big day) NOT!!! and we will already have celebrated Normans 50 birthday!!!! My mom and dad will be 75 and 68. My mom will kill me that I posted her age.. What to do??? That is the most depressing question in our minds right now. I thought at this time last year we would of spent our last Christmas without a child in our family. It looks like we are just going to be the two of us forever and ever which isnt a bad thing but it would of been really nice to spend it with a little one and to see her grow and give her our values about life. Thats all for now.

Happy Birthday Felix

Happy Birthday to our 2 year old puppy. He is also anxiously waiting for Baby China.

14 and still Counting

This is when our agency told us we would be going to China. NOT!!! It is not the fault of our agency. We cannot blame them but it would be nice to blame someone so what do people do they blame the government. So that is what we are doing the Chinese Government. Thats all we can do. But the saying goes good things come to those who wait. And that is what we are doing waiting. and waiting and waiting. 14 months I hope they dont get our paperwork lost.
So what we are going to do is drown our sorrows tomorrow in the fantastic turkey dinner at the church.
