First time for everything

Ally and Andrew were amazed at the sight of the ocean and Mexico. The waves were pretty big for most of the trip at the ocean and they were knocked down a couple times. This is a neat picture of them shell searching.

We found out this AM that we were not included in this batch of referrals. CCAA matched up to Sept. 8th. One day short of our Sept. 9th log in date. On a positive note I can say we are going to see our daughters face next month forsure . But to be honest, it was a disapointment. I feel like if we made it this far so what is one more month. I was able to tell the kids that they will see there sisters face after Christmas, thats pretty cool they think.

Our first Snow Fall

Could it be our month, FINALLY!!

It feels real finally!! Our agency says they are very optimistic that we will be recieving our referral this month. I cant believe we are finally this close. This month has gone so fast that it has really helped pass the time.
Next friday we will be taking the kids to Mexico for 6 days. We decided that life will be changing very soon so we better take the kids some where special. Scott and I have been to Mexico 3 times and we really love it there. We have wanted to bring the kids there for a long time. The resort we are staying at is www.GranCaribeReal.com it is all inclusive and has a great program for the kids if they get tired of the sun and swimming. Ally is so excited because we will be there on her birthday. That will be very special for her.
I am a little worried that we could get a call from our agency while we are in Mexico, I am going to make sure I tell them that if they call with the news leave a message and we will call them back ASAP! I wont have the computer with me so I will let you know as soon as I can. Keep your fingers crossed that we get to see our daughter soon!!!

Birthdays!!!

Happy Birthday Scott and Jade!!

comments

I have had several people say they try to leave comments and can not. I finally looked into this and I think I found the reason. I have switched the comments to everyone and anyone can leave them. SO, feel free to try again! I would like to know if anyone even reads this??

The stork is flying

What a month it has been for the August LID's. The CCAA has been extremely slow at getting the referrals out. Finally today they updated the website and they met referral dates up to August 25th. That is great news. That means we are next, at least I hope. I am going to try hard not to get my hopes set to high, but our agency seems to think we have a very good chance of seeing our daughters face at the end of the month!
