still waiting...

November is almost over and we are heading into December with no real news or updates. I was hoping to have something to share before the holidays but nothing yet.

I did drop the ball and had a pretty big panic attack back in August. I missed the fact that our fingerprints expired and our I600-A was getting close to expiring. After Ethan made a couple of phone calls and after some much needed encouraging words from our agency everything got straightened out. The paperwork got filled out and mailed in, we got our fingerprinting done and I600-A approval came in the mail... WHEW!

I am having a hard time keeping up with dates, paperwork and anything adoption related this time around. It's not that I don't have the time for it, I guess I'm just having a hard time because the wait is so long now. It's hard to be optimistic when it seems like we'll never get a referral.

I'm trying to focus all my energy on Parker and organizing the house. The house thing isn't going so great but I am loving my 4 year old! I can't believe he is 4 years old already! I am amazed every day by him. He loves preschool, cars, airplanes and of course PSY!

For now I am going to sit back and enjoy the rest of the year.
