We just got back from CA (we live in WA). It was the longest drive of our lives! We were visiting our PBM. We had the most amazing time. We went out for breakfast, lunch and dinner and our daughter and her made a bear at the Build A Bear Workshop for the baby. We thought this would be a nice gift from the PBM to her son. She loved it! She named the bear RJ. When I asked why she chose RJ she said it stood for Ryan Jr. because now he has his son. (Ryan is my hubbys name). I thought that was so sweet. We also went to this place called Before the Stork and had a 4D ultrasound done. When we arrived and we all were introducing ourselves, our PBM introduced us as the baby's mommy and daddy and stated she was just carrying our baby for us. That truely touched our hearts. We know nothing is ever a sure thing but she has been amazing through everything. The ultrasound was such a memorable time for all of us and our son to be is so beautiful. Anyway. Just wanted to share with all of you! Take care!

What a wonderful experience for you as a family! It truly sounds as solid as any potential adoption can. I hope the next few months pass quickly and that everything goes smoothly for everyone.
