We are really close now!

It is not matter a case of telling people we will get a referral in a few months, few weeks or just I don't have a clue. We can now tell people it looks like it may be by the end of this week or at the latest next. I really think it will be either Thursday or Friday. I am driving my coworkers crazy with this wait. They have been very understanding and supportive. The plan right now is as soon as we know for sure the referral will be coming that day I am going to leave work and meet hubby at his work to get the news together. I just can not imagine not being together. He is about an hour drive away so I hope to find out by 11 am so I can meet him for lunch then go back to his office to take the call. We have our ladybug letter ready fill out with all her information. We also have a special referral page ready to add a picture and information about the baby. We will call our parents and siblings first followed by our close friends. We hope to have a picture soon after the call so that we can send a link to all our loved ones and to upload the file to Walgreens or Walmart to print for our family.
We are all ready and just need a baby!

The Room is almost finished!


We don't have much left to do to feel ready, although I am sure we will never be finished decorating her room. As she gets older she will no doubt want to change things and we will be only too happy to try to please her. I just hope we can leave the murals up for a few years at least since they are really cute and took a lot of work to paint.

This is the finished first mural. Not much changed but we did paint over some of the glitter and fill in some sparse areas.

This is the second mural. Hubby did more work on this one than I did. he had it all planned out in his mind how it would look. The top of the mural is over my head so unless I wanted to paint standing on a ladder, and I don't, he had to paint the top part. He did and excellent job!

My sister came and cleaned out the closet and get A's clothes put away. They have been in the game room on the pool table for months. She often house sits and keeps the dogs for us and she has wanted to play pool so this was for her too. I don't go in the game room much. I hate to lose and I have not played much at all. Hubby loves to play and if I try to go in and just practice he will come running.

During the long wait we have participated in many sock swaps and we have also purchased many pairs on our own. My sister says we do not need to buy any more socks as she already has 75 pairs!

I did buy several pairs of tights that we on sale for $.99 this weekend. They were just too cheap to pass up.
