It's all in...

Yesterday we finally completed our adoption packet and everything was overnighted to Waco. (we had until June 8th, but I was so excited to have everything done so I wanted it to all get there ASAP) Speaking of completed...last weekend we spent most of our extra time off, getting the baby room all ready. With the exception of curtains, a lamp, a rug, and a few other miscellaneous items, we are totally done! We are so pleased with the end result. Just last night we were just hanging out in the room and we both had beaming smiles! We cannot wait for the next step that God has awaiting for us. In the meantime, we will continue to pray for our bitrthmom that God is working wanders with in this very moment and that our baby is growing into a healthy little boy or girl! We received an email from the agency this week, there are many birthmoms that are due over the summer and they asked for everyone's prayer in making that perfect match...hopefully one of those will involve Travis and me!

Here are a few pictures of the room-see the rocker that my grandfather made just for me as a mommy...it fits perfect in the nursery!
Grandma Peterson wanted our baby to have a teddy bear at home and waiting in their bedNothing too elaborate, just simple and what I could have only imagined it would be

Looks so sweet! Can't wait to welcome your baby to the family and give him/her all the love in the world. Praying for a birthmom to pick you guys really really fast!
