We Got a Date!

We heard back from our social worker and we have been cleared for a home study!  The date is June 12th - that is exactly 3 weeks away.  Luckily, we have most of the stuff done getting ready for those inspections.  It is kind of nice having a small to-do list for once!  :)

Home Study – June 12th

• Food is stored appropriately – plastic wrap and foil are not used to seal food containers
• Baby gates are used for stairways and fire place
• An emergency kit - change of clothes
• All medication is locked behind at least one lock, including refrigerated medication

We have been working on our bio book every night since Friday and it is coming along!  We want to have it done at the home study to give to our social worker so she can take it back and start showing us to potential birthmoms!  Most people think of shutterfly.com or snapfish.com, but a good friend recommended mixbook.com and we LOVE IT!  It is fairly user friendly, but it is also not too plain.  Another friend recommended viovio.com, which looks good as well. 

Tonight, my family and us (is that proper grammar?) are going to Adoption: Myths & Realities (free for anyone, no registration required) at Irving Bible Church tonight.  We also have a couple from our church going as they are thinking about adopting!!  It's crazy that not too long ago, we felt very alone in this journey, and now I feel like a lot of my friends are adopting!  I know God knew what He was doing all along, I just needed to trust Him!  He is pretty amazing, huh?  :)

Alright, back to work.  7 more days...  :)
