3 MONTHS DOWN, HOW MANY MORE TO GO?




WELL WE HAVE NOW PASSED THE THREE MONTH MARK! WELL THREE MONTHS, ONE WEEK AND 3 DAYS BUT HEY WHO IS COUNTING? IF THINGS STAY AS THEY ARE NOW AND I AM NOT SAYING THEY WILL, WE SHOULD GET JADEN'S PICTURE IN 9 MONTHS. NOT WHAT WE WERE TOLD IN THE BEGINNING BUT WE KNEW THINGS COULD CHANGE. REFERRALS WERE JUST SENT OUT LAST WEEK AND THEY COVER JUNE 16-28,2005! SO CONGRATS TO ALL THOSE WHO WILL SEE THEIR BABIES FACES THIS WEEK! THESE PEOPLE WAITED 12 MONTHS FOR THEIR REFERRAL. HOPEFULLY THINGS WILL NOT SLOW DOWN ANYMORE, I DON'T THINK I COULD TAKE IT IF THEY DID!
I STUCK IN THIS PHOTO I TOOK WHILE WE WERE IN THE MOUNTAINS LAST WEEK! I THINK I DID PRETTY GOOD! ENJOY!

UPDATES TO THE NURSERY







WELL WE ADD SOME MORE TOUCHES TO THE NURSERY THIS WEEKEND. I FINALLY OPENED UP JADEN'S CABBAGE PATCH KIDS THAT I HAVE BOUGHT. OF COURSE ONCE I GOT THEM OUT AND SMELLED THEM(EVERYONE THAT HAS EVER HAD ONE KNOWS THEY HAVE A SPECIAL "CABAGGE PATCH KID SMELL") WELL THAT BROUGHT BACK MEMORIES OF MY OWN CABBAGE PATCHES. JUST BEFORE WE MOVED MY PARENTS GAVE ME ALL MY DOLLS FROM THE ATTIC, WELL THEY HAVE BEEN IN OUR STORAGE ROOM SINCE SO I HAD TO DIG THEM OUT. THE TWO ASIAN CABBAGES ARE THE ONES I BOUGHT FOR JADEN, BUT THE OTHER TWO ARE FROM WHEN I WAS LITTLE. I EVEN REMEMBER THEIR NAMES, MAURICE CLARICE AND CHRISTINE, I ALSO HAD A THIRD CABBAGE PATCH NAMED DEBRA ANN BUT SHE SEEMS TO HAVE LOST HER CLOTHES. WELL I CLEANED MINE UP AND WASHED THEIR CLOTHES AND NOW THEY WILL BELONG TO JADEN.
THIS WEEKEND WE FOUND AN ORIENTAL STORE IN THE MALL AND WE BOUGHT THE CHINESE LATERN FOR OVER HER BED AND THE LUCKY BAMBOO PLANT THAT IS ON HER ARMOIRE. I THINK THEY LOOK CUTE IN HER ROOM. WELL THE NURSERY IS READY NOW WE JUST NEED THE BABY!

DAY 88

WELL WE HAVE NOW BEEN LOGGED IN FOR 88 DAYS! IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT HAS BEEN THAT LONG, IT SEEMS LIKE IT HAS BEEN 888 DAYS. WE STILL HAVE NO END IN SIGHT. I DID MISS UPDATING THE SITE ABOUT A BATCH OF REFERRALS THAT CAME OUT LAST MONTH THOUGH. THE LAST GROUP WENT UP TO JUNE 15, 2005. STILL NOT A WHOLE MONTH. EVERYONE KEEPS WAITING FOR THEM TO START REFERRING WHOLE MONTHS AGAIN BUT IT IS NOT LOOKING POSITIVE. THURSDAY WILL BE OUR THREE MONTH LID ANNIVERSARY! HOW MANY MORE DO WE HAVE? WE DONT KNOW. WE ARE TRYING TO STAY BUSY ORGANIZING THE HOUSE. AND OF COURSE WE HIT ALL THE SALES FOR BABY CLOTHES. I NOW HAVE 100 QUILT SQUARES! BUT I AM STILL WAITING FOR MORE. BY THE END WE SHOULD HAVE ABOUT 120 SQUARES, THE MORE THE BETTER!
