We got our legals! WOOHOO!
It’s YOUR turn girl!! Let’s hear some good news from OKC!

It’s been almost 2 weeks since we accepted Caro’s paperwork and we still haven’t gotten legals. *sigh* Jan said it’s been taking roughly 2 weeks, so I am praying it is this week. After we get them, we’ll file the I-600 again and hope that the other one won’t mess us up.
In other news, [...]

if you didn’t already notice the title up there, Caroline! Ya’ll have such great taste Thanks so much for your input. We were leaning towards Caroline because that was the other name we had picked out in case of girl/girl twins. Mike really wanted to make sure nothing else caught his eye but [...]

What an AMAZING GOD we have! I REALLY didn’t think we’d get a girl this time. My prayers were answered!!! I KNEW I had a daughter in Korea and I was SO sad when our other referral fell through. My heart was broken for the daughter I wouldn’t have. I have prayed every day [...]

to decorate baby # 2’s room in greens, with small accents of pink and blue. I think that will satisfy my need to nest and decorate and not be gender specific. I love some of the things I’ve looked at so far. I just have to make a decision and buy it I guess. [...]

So I am feeling the need to nest. However, I don’t know HOW to nest. I could do the nursery in greens and yellows. Or I could just decorate in blue and change it later if we get a girl referral. Because I REALLY want to go pink if we get a girl. [...]

Today we got our approval in the mail from USCIS saying that we are approved for 2 children. WOO HOO! Now all we need is twins It is such a relief to have this simple piece of paper in our hands. This paperwork makes the I-600 (Orphan Petition) approval MUCH faster. We [...]

It’s been a bit since we’ve updated (other than my mom) so I thought I’d post some pics. We’ve been working, weather permitting, on our landscaping of the new house. It’s hard because we have all these great ideas and not enough money for them. hehe Here is the front, it’s still a work [...]
