Success!!

This week has been quite busy! We got the t-shirt order in on Monday, organized the shirts, and had them all ready to be shipped/delivered by Tuesday night. It was a t-shirt explosion in our living room!

This is me going through the orders & counting to make sure everything was correct. (Don't mind my hair!)

A view from the loft. Poor Opie, the only safe place for him was on the couch.

I am kind of bummed I don't have a picture of us in the t-shirts. But, you will soon see for yourself how cool they are. :) And, just to let you know how much you helped us through your purchases...we made a whopping $1300!! Such a huge blessing to us!

And since we got that money, we were able to move forward a little bit more with the adoption process. On Wednesday night, we were up until past midnight gathering and filling out the first batch of paperwork for our adoption agency. We sent in the paperwork and a check to our adoption agency for our home study review fee and program fee. This was a huge hurdle and we are that much closer to getting to the point where we can join the waiting list. I'm hoping it will be sometime in late January.

It feels like it's taking us FOREVER...and it kind of is. We have been much slower to get things done this time around, but it is a little more difficult running errands with a one year old! I keep reminding myself that this is all part of God's timing, so whenever we actually join the waiting list, it will be the perfect timing to get the child that God has for us anyway.
