Awesome! We are just starting out on our 2nd adoption as well, so we will be going through this togther. I forgot about all the work this paper chase is, but I'm so excited at the same time. Our DD is 25 months old and we feel ready to add to our family. We don't know what our baby will be either so it's really exciting. Hope all goes well in your process.

Congrat's on starting again!

The easiest part for me the second time around was getting the dossier together. We actually started that and the homestudy update before contacting our agency. Be warned that the waiting is not any easier!

Hope everything goes smoothly and can't wait to hear about your "surprise"!

I have heard this process is addictive. As big of a headache/heartache as adopting can be, we are already talking about #2 and #1 isn't even home yet. Congrats on your exciting decision!
