The Great Blog of China

Well referrals are expected sometime in May for the end of October and November. That probably puts us not in the matching room just yet. But soon.

THings are going well. I am having fun doing the secret buddy gifts and have everything purchased now. Just have to wait to send them on different months.

McKenna has loved tee ball. We looked into a school for her but now they ae not moving to Henderson, so we may wait another year.

Cyber Shower Gift

Scrapbooking supplies and a great fleece blanket to take to china for the baby.

I am excited to finally meet some of the families when we actually go. THey are a great group of people.

Update

Well nothing new this week. Referrals came. Purchased some onsies and shirts for our DTC group.

We will have to wait and see the dates which May referrals bring. These referrals will probably not come until the very end of the month.

I am starting an exercise program and hopefully will get some results.

THe time goes slow as we wait for the referrals but when I look back and really look at the calandar I realize how fast it actually has gone. If our referral comes when projected it will be a short 10-12 weeks away from now.

Thats all for today.

Referrals not coming this week

It looks like referral won't come until next week or even the next. It is kind of hard. I feel anxious to see our new little one. We know she/he is born and probably in the orphange and we just want her home.

McKenna is doing GREAT at school. She has some new spring and summer outfits. She looks really cute. We need to do some more special times with her before the new arrival changes the dynamics of the family. At times it is overwhelming to me and I hope all goes well.

I have finally bought a few clothes but I am trying not to go overboard because we dont' have a referral but she will have some really cute clothes to begin with.

I am excited to meet all the new people who we will travel with. I just wish we could get our referral and travel by august. I need to put this in the Lords hands and then hang on for the ride.

REFERRAL WEEK ??!?!?!?!?!

We will see if referrals come this week or not.

I feel very anxious about them this month. I can't imagine what it will be like in July and August.

Update

McKenna is doing great at school and is reading better and better. She really enjoys teeball and seems to have alot of fun.

Nothing new to report referrals are supposed to come next week but you never know for sure. Had fun shopping for the secret buddy gifts and will get them sent. When they come we may have a better idea of when ours MAY come. I still think we are looking at July or August.

This month we are working on getting the gifts together for the orphange.

We have a new car seat and my playyard was purchased in Utah. Yeah. My parents had the name on the waiting list and was able to get one. I have had dreams and somepeople think referrals will come in June. That would be great but I bet it will be August. We will continue to work and pray.

Talk to you next week sometime with update on referral news.
