Adoption

Totally fantasizing.. should probably come down soon

So I only just recently started the process to adopt from foster care... I've done a lot of reading and am waiting for the next orientation session to be held so I can attend and go even further into the process...

And yet I can't get my brain off of the idea of getting to purchase baby staples , mainly a crib, car seat stroller and high chair...

It wasn't a snow day today but it is definitely slow here at work and I used my morning to price compare items I picked out between 3 different retailers... (Target is the winner!)

When I was TTC I went through the same obsession... I guess I didn't kick the habit as well I thought !

 Trying to give myself a pep talk not to put the cart before the horse

Re: Totally fantasizing.. should probably come down soon

  • It's totally understandable. We bought the big 4 (crib, carseat, stroller, and PnP) while we were doing our homestudy.
  • Girl, I'm pretty sure that's natural thinking! I saw "bookmark" that way you have it saved and then when the time comes, you're done! :)

  • Thanks Ladies ! I'd hoped I wasn't too far gone lol

     Dr. L -That's a good reference for a good time to start actually buying. Because after homestudy, who knows when placement could happen! Right?

    Come on baby- I actually wrote each item down with the prices at each store AND calculated the tax. But bookmarking would definitely save time when it's time to buy!

  • While we were waiting, I bought a used stroller that was just too good a deal to pass up...and ended up with a kid too old to use it.  So be careful if you are open to a wider range of children!
  • Good point C.S, that makes a lot of sense.

    My plan is to start with an infant but I could widen the age range in the future for older children.
