We are Out!!!!!

I still can't believe it! I got an email at noon today, so we must have gotten out yesterday.

I have been out getting the color copies of our passports notarized and Fed Ex to our agency. Fortunately, the notary/mail box place is next door to a very nice children's used clothing store, so I did some celebration shopping while I was out!

I am in total shock that we are out of PGN in 5 weeks. I have not even bought a crib, etc. since our first referal passed away it has seemed unreal.

Soon I will be a mom of 6! I feel like I have won the lottery.

Leslie
