Big News

I'm sure no one is still following this blog. I certainly didn't think that I would be making a return, but thought I should provide an update for anyone who may still be out there and wondering whatever happened to me.

So, I had thought my husband and I were just going to move forward and figure out some way to live our lives without children. And that's what we were doing until one day my husband came home and said he was open to pursuing adoption. To make a long story short, a friend recommended an agency used by another friend who had adopted their baby three months after beginning the process.

We had our initial interview with that same agency at the end of September. We just got word tonight that we have been matched with a birth mother who is due with a baby boy on Jan. 2 - as in any day now!! We are in shock. We have not bought a thing, thought of names or even told our employers. I really didn't think this would happen until the spring or summer at the earliest. Now, it looks like in a matter of weeks, we are going to be parents (assuming the birth mother does not have a change of heart between now and then). We are thrilled but completely overwhelmed!!

Life is crazy - wow!! So much to do....
