Truckin' along....

Things are truckin' along smoothly so far with our new agency.  We've done more paperwork and already have 3 home visits set up for September.  Our caseworker Beth said that we should hopefully have a rough draft of our home study done by the 3rd visit.  Yahhhhh!!  That means that after that, we do our profile and we are ready to be seen....hopefully. 

It just doesn't seem real that this is moving on so quickly.  I know that already having our fingerprint and background clearances done are helping, but this lady seems to really be on top of things.  And just because the licensing is going quicker than expected doesn't mean that there will be a placement as quick....and we're ok with that.  Time will tell! 

Grace is very excited, and eager to talk to Beth.  I can only imagine what she will have to say!  I do know that she will be a great big sister who has so much love to give.  I see how well she helps with and plays with our nephew and it's, well, awesome!  Though there is a big age difference between them - 6 years with Chace and almost 10 with Miles, I think she does really well! 

Speaking of an "almost" 10 year old, guess who will be the big one-oh next month?! 

We've been busy planning a "peace out" birthday party for our little (big) girl who will hit double digits!  I'll be sure to post pictures from the fun day! 
But, before that, guess who's got a birthday in just 4 days?!


Yep, this handsome guy right here (the big one, haha)! 
Doesn't he look great with a baby in his arms?!  :) 

Lots to celebrate, and lots to look forward to in the coming year!
