Ramblings

It's been a while since I posted. For a bit, I didn't have anything to say, I was so frustrated about our lost photos and video in the mail. It finally came!

My husband was out of town all last week. I was really disappointed we wouldn't be able to watch the video (when it came!) together for the first time. There is just something so special about being able to hold his hand and "meet" our little boy together for the first time.

So, he was gone when it came but there is no way in the world that I'd have the strength not to watch it for a week. I just couldn't wait another second.

The video was wonderful. Ten minutes of pure joy! Our little boy is so cute. He is a chunk, he's busy, so active and curious. He crawled all over the room, he was constantly on the move. He was into everything. The first thing my mother said when she watched it was, "Wow, your life is really going to change"! I believe her!

I know we still have a few more months of waiting, but I finally feel like we're in the home stretch to bring D home! We should be submitted for EP (Emigration Permission) in the next 2 months. After EP approval, it's 4-6 weeks until he travels.

Today my husband and I are heading to Texas. We haven't been down to see hubs family in a long time, so we're due. Plus, it's snowing outside again (yes, snow on May 11th and 12th!) and I cannot handle it. So, we're outta here!

Sunday is my first ever baby shower. In fact, it's my first shower of any kind. I elected not to have a wedding shower when I got married. Dave's mom and a few of our Texas friends are hosting the shower this weekend. I feel so spoiled and blessed! It's a wonderful feeling to know that people all over the place love us and want to celebrate our little boy.

I'll post details next week once I'm back. In the meantime, I just cleaned out my SD card for my camera. Enjoy my randomness.

When Dave goes out to eat, he likes to organize his food. Straight lines, rows of bits. I married an odd one.

I miss my parents.

Remember the diary I found in one of my rental units? Well, I opened it. (I know, don't hate!) It was teenage sense-less ramblings. Typical boring stuff, "I like this boy, I failed a test, my mom is a pain", bla bla bla. No big secrets or anything .
