What's goin' on

Hope you all had a happy Easter. We went to my parent's house and Brent's parents came too. It was a good day.

I have been stalking our homestudy guy and finally got us an appointment with him. We'll be meeting in our home 1.5 weeks from now. I'm not sure how many times we have to meet, but hopefully we can get them over with ASAP. He seems like a nice guy, although a little hard to get in contact with. But he just started at that job, and I think we're his first adoption homestudy clients.

A has been gone for over a week - much longer than that it seems. We finally took his car seat out of the car and finished cleaning his room. I still have to pick up the half dozen smiley stickers that are ground into the carpet, but that will have to wait.

That's it for new news. The only other thing thats taking up my time is trying to figure out financing for the adoption. We almost have it covered - through loans and such, but that doesn't stop me from trying to squeeze blood out of every penny that comes into this house. Every $5 we save is a Fedex ground shipment. Every $10 is an apostille request. Every $100 is a night's stay in Moscow. Every dollar that we don't have to borrow later is an acomplishment.
