Since we've got fifty nifty United States, I was thinking it might help if we all shared the state we hail from. Might give us some good connections and who knows - we might get some play dates out of the deal:-) I'll start...

I'm Rachel from South Carolina, waiting to adopt a baby sister for Gabriel in 2007.

I don't post all that often anymore, but I am Katie from Colorado and we brought home our son in June. Good luck to everyone in the process! I'm posting a picture of my now fifteen month old.

We live in North Carolina and will be bringing our 1 year old son home in a few weeks.

Anybody else near NE Ohio? We are just starting the process and hope to match with a child under 3 years.

Hi, I'm Mary, mom to two girls from Ethiopia. We live in the Pacific Northwest. (contact me privately if you do too, and are wondering if we live near each other) My first daughter is almost 4 and came home in February of 2004, and my second daughter is 17 months old and came home in June, 2005. You can read more about my girls over at the Ethiopia adoption blog...

I am waiting for a referral of a little girl - hopefully any day now. I currently live in NC but I really consider myself a true new englander.

Vivian - We're in Canton! Where are you at? We just decided on a switch from Korea to Ethiopia and will be getting things started this summer to bring home Benjamin's little sister.

We're in Ohio too--Columbus. We have a domestically adopted son, Elliott, who is 7, and we are finishing up paperwork in hopes that we'll meet Elliott's new sister, Firepants (his name choice at the mo) in the fall.

We are in North Texas and we will be starting paperwork in August for a baby brother or sister for our Juniper who just turned one (adopted from Guatemala last year). So hopefully 2007.
At this point I think we have narrowed it down an agency. Does any one have any info on AAI? Or if you would recommend another please PM me!
