How time flies!

There has been a ton of stuff going on that i couldn't or didn't want to talk about, and that as that was all taking up just about every waking thought then there didn't seem to be anything left to tell. I can and want to share some of it now, and wanted to tell you about our exciting news.

We are finally going to be parents! Yes, us!!! :-)

We were approved to adopt in September last year (after a gruelling 6 months of weekly 2 to 3 hour visits from the Social Worker!) and just before Christmas we were matched with a little boy who is now just 18 months old. The week before last it the match was finally approved by the Matching Panel and last week finally signed of by the Head of Children's services. So it's finally all official now :-)

Tomorrow we finally get to meet him and i just can't tell you how excited we are. Our road to parenthood has been one hell of an emotional roller coaster and we still have to pinch ourselves to remind ourselves that it really IS happening! Although there are plenty of reminders around the house....

Our guest bedroom (which is no longer a guest bedroom!) that Curly Boy has done an amazing job with...











The Dr Suess quilt still hanging over the door waiting to be finished...



And last but most definitely not least, the beautiful things that dear friends have been making...





I think we are going to gibbering wrecks tomorrow - but in a good way of course. Wish us luck!!!
