Red Thread To China 2007

Well, let's see...... This month is so busy. First we took Charla out for her 21st birthday. We went to Razoo's. They sang Happy Birthday to her and made her do the pole dance. We had fun. Kyle graduates this month also, this friday!!!! Woohoo 2 down 2 to go. They plan on moving out together in the next few months or so. He only has one more day of school left. My sister and brother are coming out on Thursday. She will only be here for a couple of days, but that's ok. It will keep my mind off of things right now.

Hi all,

Well today is the one month anniversary of our LID date. One month down, many more to go. can only wait for the day when we will finally meet our child. Anything that we have to do is worth it.

Well we did have a couple coming out to look at the house today, but they cancelled at the last minute. Something about thier child and school. They will reschedule though. The realtor said they ar getting many calls about the house from people wanting to move out to this area from DFW. Sounds promissing. We'll see.

Nothing much else going on.

We just got the official word that we have to begin the 10 hours of training that the Hague convention will require us to have before we travel to bring our child home. NO Problem!! I know we have a long time to complete this, but I have decided to go ahead and get it out of the way. I just ordered the book from the website. I know it will have alot of information and be beneficial to us as adoptive parents.

I have been busy getting the rest of my squishes out for the last couple of swaps I have been in. It is so great to get them in the mailbox, and I get them almost every day. Makes the wait more bearable. This month is a busy one, can't wait until this one is over.

Well today we signed the paperwork to sell the house....one step closer to getting that behind us. And the realtor actually said someone called about the house today!!!! Wow that was fast. Maybe it will sell faster than I think.
Alot going on this month. Charla turns 21 on the 17th, Kyle graduates on the 25th, and my sis comes out this month. Prom was the 5th of May, he looked so cute. I will try to upload a photo, but not sure how to do that. Darn dial up is so slow.......

I have been on the hunt for clothes for our little one. So far I have only bought girls clothes even though we have requested either gender because most likely she will be a girl. And we figure that we will start a savings account to buy boys clothing if we are blessed with a boy at referral. My husband wants a boy, I am secretly( well not so secretly hoping for a girl). But deep down it doesn't matter what the gender we will love OUR child the same.

With that said I just had to let everyone know that I found the cutest outfit for little Mylie today. I have been buying outfits from 9 months to 24 months for her. I can't help myself, I feel myself pulled to the baby section of every store we go into. Some people say why are you buying things now, it's going to be a long wait. Well for me it makes it more a reality. With the wait so long, I have to keep myself occupied so I don't get overwhelmed and start obsessing about what could go wrong. Anyway as soon as I figure out how to upload photos I will post my pictures of the 100 good wishes qsuares and the outfits I bought so everyone can see.

Thanks for stopping by.....Sandi

Well we finally decided it's time to put the house up for sale. Our realtor seems very optimistic about selling in the next 6 months. I hope that turns out to be the case. I so want to just get this done. In the last couple of months we have had some major stressful situations that have come up and now that everything seems to be calming down, we can concentrate on selling the house. And of course my oldest son is graduating from High school this year and that makes me a very proud and happy mom. 2 down 2 to go!!!!! The house goes on the market Monday the 7th so we will see what happens.
