I have had a couple of questions about the 'plan' lately. First of all, I am hoping that there are a lot of family members here, and if there is anyone that you can think of that doesn't have this address, feel free to send it to them.
So our application is in, and technically one week is almost down. For the general timeline of the process, check out the CHI website, just follow the links to the Ethiopian program. So of course, as I said before, I am indeed a bit stressed out hoping that everything goes well. But if things go smoothly, we are hoping to have our family together within a year.
Our dream is to bring home either twin infants or siblings, one an infant and the other under 3. That is our hope, and that is where our heart is. Hopefully it will be one boy and one girl, I know Travis would love a boy, and I just can't deny that I would love a daughter. Who knows what will really happen, perhaps there will be a wonderful sibling group of three, maybe twins that have an older sibling they want to keep together, and we will just have to see what God lays on our hearts. Whatever happens, we will be so happy and it will be very wonderful.
About Us
We are adopting our first children from Ethiopia, and are hoping to get a boy and a girl (twins would be awesome) probably one an infant and one a toddler. DH and I have been married 4 years (wow, how the time flies!) and we live in Columbia, MO which is a total college town but an amazing place to raise a family. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs that keep us warm in bed at night. Well, me warm, DH insufferably hot or so he says. DH is a teacher, I am in grad school, and we can't wait until our kiddos come home.
