Waiting, Nesting, and Celebrating!

It's been a while since the last post. It has been over a month since our DTE (the date our dossier was sent to Ethiopia). One month down, 4-6 left to wait! We (well more myself than Roscoe) are in nesting mode. We painted the nursery over the weekend and it looks so peaceful! We have a crib, furniture, bedding, baskets, stuffed animals! Ready for a baby to inhabit! (i'll post a pic soon) We also got great news on Sunday. Joel and Elizabeth (my brother and sister-in-law) found out they are having a boy! He is due May 24th and will be delivered in Kenya. They will then travel to the states sometime in July (4-6 meeks after the baby is born)! We'll have em for a year and then they may return to Africa. It is so exciting - our sons may just be the same age, as we are expecting a referral between August and October for an infant around 2-4 months old (typical age at referral, but we actually requested a wider range of 0-12 months). So I suppose there are many in my family waiting and nesting. Soon though, soon we will bring home our boys!
