The Meeting!

Last Wednesday, we had our all-day meeting at the agency. It was a recap of a lot of the info that we had received previously, but it's always good to hear the details again! We talked about the details of how the process works as far as getting chosen and meeting the birthmother. Then they took us through the steps of what happens after the baby is born and had us read the legal documents that she signs to relinquish custody as well as the ones that we sign to start the process of the legal adoption.

We also got to meet a couple that had recently adopted through the agency. It was a wonderful story, and their new son was so cute!

So, where are we headed from here? The next step is to get the scrapbook done (I have really got to STOP PROCRASTINATING!) and get our home study scheduled. We are hoping to have our home study completed by the end of August.

Oh, I'll throw this out there - if any of you have recent (last few years) pictures of David or me, can you e-mail them to me? We need lots of pictures of us and I don't have very many! Also, I'm looking for a few pictures of David & I at college and at our wedding - any & all help is greatly appreciated here! If you could get these to me by August 9th that would be super!!!

  1. Hey Ann. I will look through our old photos and see if I can find anything from all those years get-togethers.

  2. I will look for pictures. Would something with other people in it be acceptable, or do you want just the two of you?
