I'm Doing the Happy Dance

I just heard from the social worker!!!! Her name is Stacy, and she sounded very sweet and was easy to talk to. We've set up our first meeting at her office for next Friday morning. I have no idea what this meeting will be like, but I'm hoping it's just a "get to know you" and "this is what you'll have to do for your home study" kind of meeting. She said she would meet with me once at our home and on a separate day she would meet with J here at the house. I'm so excited but very nervous at the same time because I'm a "gotta be in the know" kind of gal, so this meeting and all it's unknowns really has me nervous.

Tuesday I called the Louis.iana Bap.tist Chil.dren's Hom.e (LBCH) to ask about their infant adoption program. The girl that I talked to was really sweet, but told me that in the 3 years that she's been there they have only handled 1 infant adoption. WHAT???? They go through a place called Sel.ler's who has a maternity home here in BR. Sel.ler's used to be Sel.ler's Bap.tist Chil.dren's Home and Adop.tion Cent.er and was located in New Orleans and Tallula, La. But it is now doing their adoptions through LBCH. The cost for their adoption process was AMAZINGLY low, as in less than $10,000 low, (we wouldn't even have to take out a loan for that!!) but I just can't wait that long. I know that it might not be that long, but still...what if it is??? So that option has been thrown out the window.

And HUGE Congratulations to JJ and her new title as blogger for Redbook Magazine's Infertility Diaries. I'm so excited for her!!!
