Big step forward!

in Adoption

We took in a 1 1/2 year old girl (very early) this morning and were told during the drop-off that she has an infant sister who needs to be placed as well but that they could place her in another home if needed.  I got approval from our agency to set up 2 cribs in our bedroom so we could take both, yay!

We are picking the baby up from the hospital later today, I have to speak with the doctors about her care, she has a fractured shoulder and possibly elbow.

Both girls are going directly into adoptive placement, TPR is being done immediately.  I don't even know how to feel, excited and scared at the same time.

    I am interested but DW isn't completely sold because she was hoping for boys next.  We want 5-6 children so if we go forward with adopting these girls than we will hold out for boys the next time.

    That is CRAZY EXCITING!.... BTW, I just read your blog for all of the details. Goose bumps for you and your wife.  I hope that all of your dreams are coming true, especially that oh-so-amazing sounding house and property.

    After 5.5 years of loss, heartbreak, and empty arms, our dreams were fulfilled through the beautiful, selfless gift of adoption. We are amazingly blessed!
