2/5/2010~The adoption process is going great. We completed writing our 2 birthmother letters and 28 Q&A. Now we just have to submit the 65 photos. Once they recieve the photos and letters, we will be up in 1 week on 3 adoption websites for the birthmom to chose us. We sign up for our homestudy Monday. Then after study is complete, we can bring our baby home:-)

1/30/2010~We have our conference call with the "media" specialist tomorrow evening. Our profile will b shown on 3 different adoption websites. They are requesting a minimum of 65 photos that have been taking within the last year. I guess we need to get picture snappin happy..lol


1/26/2010~So we have completed our birthmother letter & have chosen the pictures to send in to be placed on the Internet. Now we r waiting for the "media" people to call us this week regarding placing our profile on the adoption website. Once they place us on the site, then the birth mom can chose us. We have chosen a few boy names (if its a boy) Brayden Michael Chatham or Parker (just havent came up with a middle name yet)

1/17/2010 David and I had a great conference call with our adoption specialist tonight! We should b up and running on the adoption website in a few weeks and because we r open to many ethnicity's, she said it's only a matter of weeks before we r chosen by our birthmother or have our baby girl/boy home. Buying our carseat and stroller (travel system) next week:)!

1/15/2010 -Thank u ALL for the support, prayers, and words of encouragement! We were overwhelmed by all the comments we received. We r so excited to b adopting our baby soon. Once our information is posted on the adoption website, the birthmother then can choose us. We were told anywhere from 3 weeks to 4 months we will have our baby home!! Please continue to keep us in ur prayers. We have a lot of planning to do until then:)
