We have a baby!!! It's a girl!!!

Today we had a phone conference with a birth mom at 5:00 . It was a wonderful conversation. We hung up and the agency called us back within 5 minutes to let us know that she had selected us to be the parents of her baby girl. She is due December 26th!! What a wonderful Gift from God!!! We are so excited and I think in a little shock!!! I am so overwhelmed with emotions!! The birth father was also on the phone! They asked us questions and we asked them questions! Good to hear voices and get connected!! Wow!! What a difference a day makes!!!

We are just waiting and waiting and waiting....

Well, we are just waiting...... The agencies have begun to present us to birth moms. We are also viewing birth moms! Very exciting & nerve racking ! Some of the agencies let us view available situations online and if we see one we are interested in we can have them give our profle to the the birth mother. Then we wait... Just continue to pray for quidance and direction. We know that the Lord will lead us to the right situation at the right time.

Here is my diaper bag I got the other day. It is chocalate and white damask! I love it!!










Well, today was a very fun and exciting day!! I shopped and purchased furniture for the baby room. All already have a beautiful crib. It is pink right now and will need to be painted. Even if a girl I am not doing pink. Lavender and lime green. I found a dresser/changing station and side table for the rocking chair. I brought home the rocking chair on Monday from Heather's house. The room is starting to take shape... Just need to know the sex of the baby before I paint and buy the bedding. Heather and her girls came over to help me unload it all and put it all in the room, so we can surprise Jody when he comes home :).
