Well, since I last posted, we have received all of our profile books, and they look so great! I actually teared up when I opened it and read it for the first time. It's been really fun to show them to people and be finished with that big part of the process!!
We traveled to Colorado last week to see friends, and when we got home our caseworker was asking for our books to be brought to Gladney. Believe it or not, there is a birthmom who will be looking at our profile sometime in the next couple of weeks! We know that it might not be the right match, but it feels very exciting to already be out there in the mix. Of course, I thought about it all day yesterday when we heard about her and cried about 4 times. :)
Yesterday was also a big day because we bought the car seat/stroller combo to be ready in case a baby comes earlier than expected! That was pretty fun. We started registering (wow, that's a lot of work!), but we still have a ways to go. I had a weird moment turning in the scanner, because this other mom waiting to register looked at me and then at my non-pregnant stomach so weirdly. It made me feel awkward, almost like I had to explain that I was adopting- but I didn't. Oh well, little weird moments along the way, but that's okay. I'll try and post a picture of our car seat soon!
