One Year Ago...

One year ago today we finally finished our dossier paperwork and went on the waitlist at #61 for infant girl and #24 for siblings.

  To be honest, it's hard to believe it's been a year already!  I doubt many in the adoption world would say their time on the waitlist flew by, but it really has for me.  (So far!)  We joined the waitlist long before we were actually ready for a referral, hoping by the time we were ready we'd be towards the top of the list.  Well, today I can finally say with complete confidence...I am ready!  We're moving to our new house next week (with an extra bedroom for 1 or 2 more kids) and our littlest man just turned 2 and is becoming less high maintenance every day. 

Moving will require us to update our homestudy (and pay more $, ugh), but shouldn't be a huge deal.  So, bring on the referral!  Today we're #13 (#5) on infant girl and #4 (#1) on siblings!
