Friends with new babies!



It's been a long time since the last post. Things have been quite depressing with these wait times getting longer and longer each month. For all friends and family we have not talked to lately, the wait times are increasing and realistically, we are not hopeful of a referral for our child until Fall of 2008. Yes, that is over 18 months from now. There is no easy was to explain it, but it is what it is and we are at the mercy of the Chinese government for now...sigh
We have been trying to keep busy and we are currently getting our house ready to put for sale in hopes of moving back to KY before the baby comes. Of course with the current housing market in Florida, it's hard to say what will happen first - the house selling or the baby coming.
We have made some wonderful friends while waiting, and it is so exciting to see them travel and back with their little ones. This past weekend, I went to my second Chinese baby shower. It was so much fun! We also attended our monthly Families with Children from China meeting and we got to greet 3 friends who have just come home with their daughters.
Welcome home Lexie, Maggie and Olivia!
