We're ADOPTING!!!!!

We're so excited for the whole process. After 2 long years of trying for another child and extensive lab work only to show we're both healthy and have no known infertility, it was either IVF or adoption, so we chose adoption. We've always talked about wanting to adopt and we feel God is calling us to do it now. We chose the agency Love Basket (christian based agency) who's main office is in Hillsboro, MO (not far from our home town) and they also have offices in Kentucky and Minnesota. We got the best feeling from them and we were actually able to drop of the application in person when we went home for Christmas.
We already have our home study set up for Jan. 20 which is a lot sooner than we thought it would happen. The person doing the home study is already flying out (she's coming from Waco, TX) for another couple who is doing an international adoption so it worked out perfectly. We just sent off all our information for the home study today. That is the most paper work I think I have ever done but soooo worth it. We are doing domestic and will probably do international sometime in the future. We're open to any race so we could have a new baby in 6 months to a year which is pretty crazy. Well keep everyone updated on the process.
