I know I have been MIA for a long time so you all have probably forgotten who I am but I wanted to get on here and see what everyone is up to. We were moving out of state and spent a couple of months renovating our new house with no internet so I am so happy to finally be able to post again.

A lot has happened since I have been gone but most importantly...we got our referral I still can't believe it because it all happened so much faster than we thought it would. On May 6th our agency called us with the good news and when we opened the email with the picture of our baby I fell in love instantly. She is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen...of course, I am a little biased This monday we actually got four new updated photos of her and she is cuter than ever and you can start to see her personality coming through. We were told that we would travel in 5 to 6 months which seems like an eternity...I just want to hold her in my arms now. We are hoping to travel in September to bring her home.

Anyway, I can't wait to catch up on all the posts and see how everyone else is doing.
