Recently...

Since many of you are reading this blog to stay updated on our adoption, I'll just say upfront that there hasn't been any good news lately. We did move up 3 spaces on the waitlist, but we were also told by our agency that the wait has gone from 4-6 months to 5-8 months. There have been more referrals this past month so it has been encouraging to see that things really are happening, even though it's painfully slow!

In other news, we have had some fun things going on in the past week or so...

First, we got to welcome home some of our dear friends from Ethiopia with their new son! So exciting! Sweet, sweet boy...


After that we got to meet up with some of my friends from high school. Scott and Stacey are also adopting from Ethiopia and we had a great time sharing adoption stories and just catching up.


Then, last week we had the "blizzard" and I got two days off from school. Don also got a day off and we had a ton of fun just hanging out at home together. He also got a lot of exercise shoveling our driveway... we don't have a snowblower yet, but we may look into it since this winter the shoveling has been pretty brutal (or at least it's looked that way as I've watched from the warmth of the house!).

Praying for you as you continue to wait. :( I'm sure it's excruciating.
