Things are very exciting at our agency lately because there have been a TON of referrals! Congratulations to all the happy families out there :) Weird part is, there still hasn't been one baby girl in almost 6 months. Craziness. The courts are closed now until late September and there is already a big back-up of cases through December. A big part of me is ok with not getting a referral right now until the courts start moving at a regular pace again.
We have also made a big decision to buy a different house. We love this area, but a little bit bigger house with an extra bedroom for baby would be really nice. We started looking at foreclosures and you would be shocked what great deals are out there! Some are almost twice as big as our house for the same price. We would really like to rent our house out as #2 in Mike's plan to collect rental property. That means we have officially pulled out the paint brush and will be fixin it up over the next several months. We are trying to wait until after our embassy apointment so it doesn't slow anything down with the adoption.
Mike has decided to change professions and become a police officer. He took the physical exam and a written exam this Saturday and passed both!! He has several more tests and interviews...I'll keep you posted. I've always wanted a man in uniform :)

Lots of exciting changes coming y'all's way! Hopefully things will start speeding up once the courts reopen- I still pray for y'all and for that sweet girl that is waiting on the other side of the world for you.
