Anticipation

We go in Thursday to review our profile & sign it, and then we are official! Everything was completed last week, all our paperwork was done and we are good to go. I made a major goof on Sabrina's background check paper when I mailed it in. I put Sean & my birth year, instead of hers (oops, if it wasn't such a pain, not to mention a waste of $10!, it'd be hilarious), so it has to be redone. great. But that won't slow the process any, so we are okay. Thursday Sean picked up the day bed for the girls that we will be putting in the basement, and Friday we went & got paint for the 2 rooms upstairs. We are still looking at 4 kids, although the boys we wanted have been placed with a family. We might end up with 2 girls & 2 boys, or all boys. Since we only have 2 rooms we really need to have an even number, can't have 3 boys & 1 girl. We are still looking. We actually found a group of siblings last week that is 2 &2 and physically they look like they could be our kids. ha. Wouldn't that be interesting? Lot less explaining to nosy people. Saturday, Sabrina & I painted the first coat on the one room. It looks awesome. Sean wasn't sure of the color, he should learn to trust me in matters like this. ;) The dog is totally confused because he's been locked out of his room. He nosed the door open this morning & didn't even go in since it still smells like paint. Dumb dog. We also had fun getting all the yucky drool off the walls before we painted. We set the computer up down in the basement after we moved the desk downstairs. I should have filmed that, cause it was funny trying to get the solid oak desk down the steps. Sabrina was some help but her skinny little arms don't hold much :) Now all I need is a rack of cubbie's with drawers so I can stash all the stuff that is everywhere. Especially the books. Some days I wish I didn't like to read so much! I guess that about covers it. Hopefully we will still be able to have children by the end of May. We'll see. I would really prefer the kids come during the summer so they have time to adjust to one thing before they are thrown into another. Keeping our fingers crossed and prayers said! Can't wait.
