Let the Waiting Begin

Finally, we are finished with all of our paper work and classes! We got our profile book printed and everything sent off to the agency! Yay! Now, we just wait! We could be waiting a short time. We could be waiting a long time. We just really don't know. I'm trying my best to be patient and to not get my hopes up too high about things happening soon. Oh, but I really hope it doesn't take forever, either!!
In the mean time, I have plenty that should keep me busy. We still haven't got anything set up in the nursery. I am anxious to get that done, but other things have come up financially and the nursery has been put on the back burner. It will get done - even if it's a mad dash to get it done, it will get done!!
I also want to make a baby quilt - I have finally decided on a pattern, just have to decide on fabric now!
We also need to get the necessary stuff, too. You know, like bottles, diapers and baby shampoo! Not quite as exciting as baby clothes, toys and blankets - but, you gotta have them!
So, while we wait, there is still plenty to do. I just hope that the wait isn't forever. That I can be patient and know God has a baby out there for us and He will bring it along in His time. Oh, but I'm so ready for baby! I'm so ready to be 'Mama'. I'm so ready to love and care for a little one. To teach him/her and watch them grow! I'm just a waitin'!!
