Waiting is really hard


There is nothing to report on our adoption journey. And that's just the problem--I wish there was something new. Some exciting news to share, but there isn't. It's so hard being "paper ready" and not having a little face to stare at and pray specifically for. There is a child in India that belongs with us and I don't know his or her name and I don't know his or her birthday...I don't know anything. All I really do know is that we are ready. We are ready to know our baby. We are ready to begin planning for the day he or she will come home. We are ready to have some news. It's really hard waiting. I know the waiting won't get any easier once we get our good news--it will probably get tougher knowing that they are there and we are here--but I still want to stare at a little face and carry it with me like a proud mama. We have a picture frame on our family wall waiting just for you, babe. We love you already. Can't wait to be your mama.
The little white frame is for you, sweetness. We thought it fitting because it says handmade in India. So looking forward to placing the first picture of you we get to see.

Peekaboo and Crawling Videos

Emerson surprised us this weekend by initiating peekaboo. She is learning so much and it's so much fun watching all of the new things she's able to do. Emmy is also crawling like crazy--such a fun time with her!
