We sit... We wait...

I have been pretty patient throughout most of this adoption process... but, I'm just getting to that point now, where I want to travel! Our paperwork (according to our case manager) is still being reviewed, since we had to send them a few additional documents later than our registration date (since they asked for additional paperwork), and now we sit... we sit... we sit... and we wait... we wait... wait. I suppose this is how an expecting mother feels... and that nesting feeling has kicked in. I've finished a few more tid bits in the "room" the last few days and SOON (the day we leave), I'll give you all a BIG reveal on how it all looks! But for now, you can wait... since I have to wait ;) Enjoy these little snippets.


I hit a bit of snag the other day... when I painted a piece of furniture in the room yellow...and it turned out to be "stop light" yellow... not the gentle soft yellow I was going for.. but yellow school bus yellow instead! So, this week I'll try painting it a whole different color... perhaps I'll leave it yellow inside, but the outside definitely needs a new look. (This picture definitely doesn't do it justice... in fact, if the yellow looked like the yellow in this picture, I'd keep it that color.. don't let it fool you.)


Runyan is getting very cozy on the sweet bed. Soon, he has NO idea that a little body is going to fill that spot.

  7. These snip-its are so fun & I can't wait to see the whole thing :) Hang in there! I know waiting is hard (though I'm not waiting for a child), but we've been going through a rather difficult process of buying a house the past few weeks...delays are not fun. I'm praying for you today!
