The first thing is getting the house ready for home inspection. We have lots of DIY projects planned and some that we have even started. We will be blogging the whole process so pop back to see our progress and to hear our experience.
We know this next year is going to be filled with many ups and downs. We are buckling up and going on a ride. First stop.... agencies and a sit down with the state of California. Oh crap - I just got nervous.

Cathie and Eddie (aka soon to be parents)

ReplyDeleteCongratulations! When a former co-worker adopted her two boys (Twins!) it was a wonderful and sometimes frustrating process. Make sure you have a good support system for yourself if you find yourself in a situation where you need to vent a little (for EX. the Judge didn't understand my friend's IT job and told her to consider getting a better job like her husband's. The fact is, she makes more money and has more responsibility at her job than her husband!) Everything worked out for the best and they have a lovely family.
ReplyDeleteYou will be a great mom...
ReplyDeleteThat's so exciting! My brother-in-law and his wife just went through the adoption process. It's scary, but exciting, and their adoption was just finalized last week.
