We are SO SO happy! That means that we can get the ball rolling and get on their waiting list. I know it is just a small thing - and actually means the beginning of more waiting, but we are psyched to get over this initial hump.
We also got to bring home our amazing furniture and begin the process of sanding and refinishing. The manager of the Salvation Army (on Nolensville Rd. - GO THERE - IT IS AMAZING.) was TERRIFIC and so helpful with this purchase, so I took her a shirt and we took a picture with her. We want Baby C to know how very loved he/she was before he/she even came home...So here we are together - getting ready to load our purchase..
It is going to be so fabulous, I can hardly stand it. It is safe to say that this baby room will be the coolest room in our house. When it is finished, I will do a final blog about it. Also in happy news (even the smallest tidbits, right?) Some of our Tennessee adopted family were delivering some things for our yard sale and decided to walk across the street to a neighbors yard sale. Amazingly enough, they had the exact car seat WITH BASE that I have been drooling over. They are a little pricy on craigslist and at essex and DEFINITELY at target, so I wanted to wait until we were further along in this process. HOWEVER they gave us an AMAZING deal - 25.00 for one car seat and base- and it is in perfect condition. HOORAY!!! so we took it and immediately tried it out with Heather's ADORABLE son, Avery. It was a perfect fit. SO happy. Too bad I don't have a picture of that. :) You would SO love it.
Last of all - we are having a yard sale at our house on AUGUST 12TH AND 13TH - Invite everyone you know. We have a little of everything. You will definitely find something you just HAVE to have - and at such a deal - how can you pass it up??? :)
How did I not know this about you? I am in tears over your journey and in awe over your tremendous faith. You are such a beautiful person inside and out!
