paperwork paperwork

Here we go with all the paperwork.Met the social worker today and she gave us our stack of paper work to get done.I really like her she is a neat lady.I now have writers cramp from our biography.I am not even half way done yet.But i will work deligently on all the documents we need and kbi checks local police checks all of it for homestudy and dossier.My dear husband is really good about getting the copise made we need.I do the bigger stuff because he gets overwhelmed with all.
Another day closer to our beuatiful baby boy.I cannot wait to meet him.We have chosen a name for him.Elijah Emmanuel.I love the name Elijah so much.I am excited and cant wait until all the paper work is complete and in Liberia.Tomorrow im calling the docs office and scheduling our physicals.That another marked off dossier and homestudy.I am also sending off our Kbi checks.I hope to have everything done for the homestudy next week.Or at least try.I forgot about all the paper work adoption requires.Doing to seperate adoptions from India ya think i would be a pro.Oh well its always a learning experience.

Just my luck

I tell ya when ya need something it goes on the fritz.I need some documents for the paperwork printed off and my printer decided to not work.I was so upset.Tomorrow i will call my dear friend and see if i can borrow hers.It just frustrates me grr.We meet with Susan on Thursday regarding the homestudy.I wish it was all done and all papers were done and in Liberia.But my goal is to have all paperwork and homestudy complete and turned in in May.
I couldnt help myself i went shopping and bought some Items for Emmanuel.I still have alot to purchase but will get it.A friend of mine was so thrilled about our adoption she is crocheting him a baby blanket with an angel on it.He is our ANGEL.Our sweet beautiful angel.Oh and my niece gave me a brand new car seat for Emmanuel.She just gave birth to a 7 lb 3 oz baby girl.Which i must say my great neice is BEAUTIFUL.Anyway she had 2 car seats a pink one for Ryleigh and black and gold she gave me for Emmanuel.Everyone has been willing to give us items for him.I am keeping a list so i can send thankyou notes to them.

I found agency to do homestudy

I am thrilled that i found an agency close by to do our homestudy for us.We meet with her in her office on Thursday at 11 am.She was really great to talk with.So here we go.I am thrulled this is happening.I have already started compiling some of the paperwork we will need for dossier.But for tonight its just me and the youngest here at home and im having a cup of coffee and listening to my son Landen playing his keyboard.He puts a finger on 2 keys and moves his head side to side.His daddy calls him Stevie Wonder lol.
I will be dropping an email to agency directer i have some questions for her.I have not slept well since i have seen this babes pic and called the agency about him.It all runs through my mind of the paper work needed and completing the homestudy and getting through INS.I pray for this precious angel everynight.I pray we bring him home.

I cant sleep!

Am i losing it or what?I cant sleep all i do is go down the list of things that need to be done for homestudy and dossier.I have some much needed remodels i want done before the visit to the house.Some of the things my hubby dont know how to do.My brother law Chad is comming next weekend to do some of them for me .Thank you Chad!
We have some screens that need repaired.Did ya know grasshoppers like to eat the mesh on screens?So we took them into the lumber yard and had them put wire screen in them.Chad will be putting the ones up high on.And Hubby will do the lower ones.Besides being on this blog this late at night i also started some of my much needed spring cleaning.It needs done and i cant sleep so why not.My family are all sound asleep and im resteless.I have been through 2 adoptions and Both times my anxiety of preparing and waiting has been through the roof.Please tell me this is normal?I so bad wish i could snap my fingers and home study was done .I wantto push all paper work and turn it over to agency asap.Now to find an agency to do homestudy.I will be calling around tomorrow to get this off the ground.I am so ready to open my arms wide for this beautiful sweet babe.As soon as i square things with an agnecy for homestudy i will be busy working on differnt resources for his sp needs.I did this with Landen and am so glad i did.ok enough babble time to finish cleaning my fridge its in the middle od the floor right now.

Good News

I am happy to report that Michaels stress test that showed a blockage was WRONG.He had a heart cath this morning and his heart is just fine.I didnt understand how he could have a blockage when he worries about his health and weight.I thought that was odd.
Today all i could think about is little Emanuel.I am going to go crazy waiting to hear something .My parents and i talked about him today while waiting on Michael to come out of surgery .My mom said she cant wait another baby boy to love and watch flourish.I pray we know something soon.

Possible adoption

I am praying this will happen a special beautiful 3 yr old boy in Liberia who is needing a home.I contacted AFAA about him.I am praying we are accepted and can bring this sweet baby home.He is special needs and absolutely ADORABLE.He would be a perfect fit in our family.I am ready to start a homestudy and get moving.The sooner we can get things moving the better.As soon as we know i will be busy lining up programs for him to help him blossom to his full potential once home.I am so excited have been every since i found out about him.I dont want to post alot yet until we know we can proceed but once i start i will be blogging like a mad woman .

health issues

Tommorrow my dearest husband is having a heart cath done.He is so so scared .We dont understand he eats well i mean not fatty he eats right.And he is an active man.He walks alot and always pride himself with goos health so we dont understand how in the world he has a blockage in his artery.Tomorrow at 6 am they will prep him for the surgery and i will be right their with him.
Landen also has been having some issues.He has not been eating very much and I got worried.So we wnt to the doctor and he agreed.Landen has been the same weight for a year.At first the doc wasnt concerned but did say a year he should of gained an ounce or so.So Landen will be seeing a gastro eurologist at childrens mercy hospital he will also see a dietician i hope thats spelled right .
I had to argue a bit but we finally got a nuro appointment.He goes yearly for a check up and he needs his blood darw and have his levels checked for his siezure medication.I am sure he needs an increase as he has had some break through seizures.Please pray for my Husband ,Pray he gets through the anxiety he is having.
