Thanksgiving Anticipation

Thank you all SO much for your support and love! The more I think about the baby shower, the more excited I get. I know that it is going to be tough at times, I know there will be some tears along the way, but all in all I want to do this for my friend. For one day I want to be the supportive friend instead of the broken infertile woman.

I am so excited that my friend Jess (some of you may follow her blog) is starting the adoption process! They have sent in their application for the agency and I plan on learning as much as I possibly can from her along the way. Given the "free home study" we have, we will be on that road again very soon.

I am gearing up for Thanksgiving, I am VERY excited that we are hosting Thanksgiving dinner for some of our friends. I love cooking big meals and we love entertaining. I am just on pins and needles - VERY excited!

The countdown for me has begun...we are officially OFF the "on a break" train in less than 2 months. I am going to try and really enjoy the next couple of months and hope and pray that we are both ready to dive back in come January 1.

AWE, thanks for the sweet shout out to me! I know we will both have our dreams! Your time line is perfect because adoption agencies are not doing any classes until the new years...so your timing is going to be right on!

I can't wait to hear about your Thanksgiving dinner party. Our baby's God mom, Jaime, is hosting a huge dinner party for Thanksgiving and I'm so excited because I don't have to see my mom on Turkey day! A fun, stress free day...yeah! :)

Who's baby shower are you hosting? Just think, you will have yours soon...adoption isn't a dead end like IF, you will have your baby!

LOVE YOU!

I've been watching your blog for some time now...in the background, quietly cheering you on :)
I read about your family building seminar and was so thrilled for you! My husband and I have been battling infertility for years and we went to a similar seminar last weekend, too! Now it's not "Will I have a child?" It's "WHEN will I have my family?" I'm excited for you and am inspirired by your words!
