Happy New Year!

I don't even know if anybody still follows this blog. Leave me a comment if you do :)

Happy New Year! Our little Pi is 8 months old and we are meeting with her birthmother, Matrices, this coming Friday. This will be our first meeting with Matrices since Pi's birth. We have had monthly phone calls and I have sent her pictures, but this is our first post-placement visit. We are all excited! Factor keeps asking in depth adoption questions. I wonder what will come out of his mouth at our meeting.

4 Months Ago

A little baby was born 4 months ago. She is our Pi. I call her birthmother once a month to chat. I send pictures every other month. She is adorable! Factors LOVES her to pieces and she loves him. She has filled an empty spot in our family and we are blessed to be her parents :)

WE'VE BEEN CHOSEN!!!

The title says it all! Baby is due May 22, by c-section. Not many days to prepare the house, to say the least ;-)

We have a yard sale the next couple of days, but I will be back to update in a little more detail in a few days.

Long time

It's been a long time since I last wrote anything here. I get so tired of writing the same old updates..."no news"... I apologize for not keeping this up as regularly as some of you may have hoped (and as I intended). When a blog becomes 2 years old and most of the posts are about not being chosen or no news, it is difficult to get motivated to write anything in it.

I'll try to write a more extensive update sometime this coming week or so.

Broken Record

Nice title. Not to sound like a broken record, but we found out today that we were not chosen. (I didn't mean the title to sound like we have broken a record, but I'm sure there has to be at least one that we have broken by now.)

We also found out why we weren't chosen. It was over the wording of something in our homestudy.

Beyond bummed.

I'm going to Disney World.

Aaaah! Narrowed Down.

I hardly ever hear from our caseworker anymore. Of course, that is per my request. Yet, everytime the phone rings, I am anxious to see if the caller id says the name of our agency. Today it did. My struggle between excitement and caution begins.

We were called today because we are being considered by somebody who has narrowed her selection down to two families. Ugh! There are so many emotions that come to my heart and mind, I can't even verbalize them all.

Last night, I was at Babies 'r Us and I cried. I cried because Factor is too big for the clothes there, and I really have no reason to go back to that store. I was sad. I have no baby for whom to shop. We have waited for almost 2 years now, and random things just strike me as sad. That was one of them.

Today, we are a family being considered. I feel like I have to be ultra guarded, but really want to dance and sing.
