Nursery Is Done!

Rachael and I finished our nursery this week! It's themed in a classic Winnie-the-Pooh decor. We started painting a couple weeks ago, got a Pooh lamp and crib set, and joked about nicknaming a corner of the room where we intend on placing dirty diapers "the house at Pooh Corner." We're very happy with the results!



We're not intending on doing any more at this point or getting any more baby items until we know more, but we wanted to do at least this much in order to add a photo to our adoption profile book.

If you're asking where are we now in the process, well, we're still waiting for our home study to be completed. Please pray for us about that as we were told it would be done by the end of July and haven't been given any updates on when that will be accomplished. It's very frustrating! Rachael started back at school this week full time, so scheduling another appointment is going to be much harder now and will likely result in her having to take time off.

We're also in the process of working on our profile book. Not an easy task when it's your one and only first introduction to the expectant parent(s) and there's so much you want to say. There's a bunch of back and forth also with our adoption agency through the revision process. Once completed, we'll need to provide our agency with 6 copies, 2 to each of their different office locations in Florida. So there is something else we could use some prayer about.
