August update!

If you have read the last post you will know about our plans to adopt (or at least on a very basic level,) so now is the time to get right into the nitty gritty!

Lots has happened in my world in the last month and a bit. We chose our agency, attended an adoption workshop, applied to the program, and sent in a multitude of paperwork. Right now we are getting super close to getting our home study scheduled. All that is lacking is for our criminal record checks and personal references to come back. Hopefully the references will be back mid next week because that is when the criminal checks are ready!

We have chosen Bulgaria! Our future son or daughter will be a tiny tot from Eastern Europe and we couldn't be more excited. We are looking for 0-3.5 yr age range.

The finances are looking less bleak as we now know the exact payment schedule and it is somewhat nickel and dimed away. So that is positive! 

Wish us luck! I will do my best not to be a  stranger during this time :s
