Moving Right Along...

Things continue to progress on our case! Mason had is 2nd DNA test completed today. It will take about 7-14 days for the results to arrive to the US Embassy. Once the results are received and reviewed by the USE, we should receive "PINK" just a few days following. Mason turned 7 months old this past Tuesday. We received updated pictures and new stats. He weighs 15# 12oz.
This week has been wonderful...2 baby showers and another one on the way. Earlier this week a group of women from my Bible Study surprised me with a shower...THANKS LADIES! Tonight, work had a shower (I work with a wonderful group of people by the way)...THANKS CO-WORKERS! We have a third shower this Sunday, it's a couple's shower, which is being hosted by 2 dear friends of ours...THANKS JEN & JEFF. I am very excited for this shower, because our parents (among other family members) will be in town to celebrate with us! Plus, we will be among friends!

I have gotten quite a bit done w/ the nursery...clothes and blankets washed, starting to stock up on diapers, wipes and formula, etc. We are having a couple of pieces of furniture made (wardrobe & toy chest) and they should be delivered to our house sometime next week. Once these pieces arrive I will need to arrange the furniture, hang a few things and finish up organizing the room. I have several "to do" and "to pack" lists already started. Which reminds me...any EN families out there that want to send down care packages, leave me a comment and we will connect somehow.

Now, what you really stopped by for....THE PICTURES!

The overalls were a pair of my nephew's (Big D)...so these pictures are extra special!

We continue to pray that these last few steps go smoothly and without incident. We pray God will continue prepare Mason and us for the day we become a forever family!
