It's time to go crazy............

Ok everyone. Hold on, it's going to be a crazy week. Yes indeed, rumor has it we will be getting that call this week some time. I am going out of my mind!! Someone please drug me...2 long years of waiting and it is finally here. Not sure what to do with myself this weekend. As soon as I get that call, you all will know..Thanks so much to everyone who has been standing by my side through this whole thing. I have been a "lil bit" crazy these passed few days..Keep checking the blog for the big announcement!! WHOO HOO!!

Delivery.....

Look what I got delivered to my house today. I am having very bad anxiety these days and it is interfering with my sleeping. This should definitely do the trick. One case=12 bottles, I have 12 days of waiting..One bottle per day until referral. I think I can handle that! Grab me some pineapple juice and some blue curacao and I got myself my favorite drink.

This is exactly what I am drinking right now! YUMMY! Anyone care to join me?

Ok, now on the serious side. I did get a delivery the other day from my friend Colleen who will be traveling with us to China to get her daughter Hannah.
She sent Ally this wonderful "big sister" shirt and Olivia these cute pair of sneakers that I did want to buy for Olivia, but I didn't get them. So Colleen went and bought them for Hannah. So, she was nice enough to buy a pair for Olivia too. These girls have so many outfits alike that they will look like twins in China. Thanks so much Colleen!!

Impatient..........ME

Ok, so we all thought it might be an easier wait this time around being we are definietly in the next batch...Well guess what?? IT'S NOT!! It just sucks. The wait is endless. The wait these passed 2 weeks is much more worse than I could ever imagine. Call me impatient..VERY much!
Don't get me wrong, I'm very excited to be next..but thought the wait would be a lil bit more easier this time around. Are you freaking kidding me? Just put me out of my misery and call me to tell me you found my daughter...WTF. My head is about to explode..(that explains the blue guy)...After waiting 22 mos..you would think 2 weeks is a breeze. Think again!
Ok,,just wanted to put in my 2 cents. Thank you for listening...;-)

Getting closer....

This is just how I'm feeling today!

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are down to 2....

2 more weeks that is until we see Olivia's face. Olivia who you say? Well, it's that beautiful little girl in China who we have all been patiently waiting for, for about 22 mos. now! Yes, my friends, I promise not to be such a basket case once I see that referral, I'll be even worse but in a good and extremely happy way.Sorry to all of you that have been putting up with me these passed couple of months. The next couple months will be even worse...just a warning!!

On another note, those of you who read my blog..and I know it is a whole bunch of you. I need to see some comments. Instructions, click on the comments button on the bottom of this message..click on "other" and put in your name..no need to put in a website...it is as easy as that!! Looking forward to hearing from you all!!

On a sad note. Here's to "Symba" dog. We will miss you very much. My brother-in-law and family lost their dog this morning very suddenly. She will be deeply missed!! She was an awesome dog to have and touched all of our hearts!!
This picture was taken a few years back of Jennifer (left), Ally (middle) and Kelly (right)..Ally's cousins.They look so cute...and of course our very own Symba dog!!

Shower time.......

My in-laws got together for a brunch and had a little shower for me. I got some beautiful things..Way too much to show you all. Here are some of the goodies I did recieve. My neice gave me this pacifier which means "sweetheart" in chinese.Too cute!
Thanks so much to Gramma Nancy, Auntie Lizzy, Auntie Mary and all my other relatives and friends for making this day wonderful!!!
P.S. I think my friends are giving me a shower, but they are not telling me anything, they are very mean like that!!!

2 1/2 weeks and counting....

Ok, so the thing is, I am very excited, eager, and antsy. I need this time to fly bye very quickly. Any suggestions?? I just can't wait to see Olivia's face. The time is just not going fast enough for me. Yeah, I know, I'm never happy...Haha. Just knowing that I will get that call soon, the time isn't cooperating with me at all. I just need to keep myself a 'lil bit' more busy than I am now. I'm guessing the mall and drinking may do the trick! Down to 2 1/2 more weeks. It's feeling like a lifetime! UGH!

3 Weeks and counting.....

Please, please, please March go by fast!!! I am going to make sure this month goes by fast!! I can't believe we are next. It is such an exciting feeling to know, we will get that call. No more wondering, just a lil bit of waiting. So, here's to only 3 more weeks until we finally see Olivia's face!! Whoo hoo!

We are next!!!!

Ok, it's offical. We did not make the cut off to get our match. We missed it by four days! Just a few more weeks to wait. Am I upset..a "lil bit" but it is such a great feeling just knowing for sure we are next. So being upset right now isn't worth it. The wait this time is going to be less stressful and a much more exciting wait I must say!! Just knowing that we will make the cut off next..well let's say, I'm doing the happy dance! So I say "HOORAY" we are offically,,,finally,,,without a doubt NEXT!!!

Someday soon....

Someday soon......I will be able to hold 2 daughters in my arms.

Very tired.......

Still waiting for those referrals to come in. Wishing so much we will be matched with a baby next week! I'm just getting very tired. They are saying the end of next week. What's another week after you have waited almost 2 years. I just need some news quickly so I can fall asleep faster at night..UGH!!!
