Still waiting

We wait!! I haven't written on that in awhile :o)

We are still waiting for a decision from DCF about medical insurance for Mason.  They said it would take two weeks...we are in week 5!
We really don't care if they say "yes" or "no".  It would be a great help, but God has provided this far and I know he will continue!

No, the reason I'm annoyed about waiting this time is because their decision (or lack there of), is hindering our finalization!!

I want to no longer explain why is name is "different" on our insurance card.
I want to no longer have to say, he's ALMOST adopted.
I want to no longer have those few loose ends that stop us from giving him our last name. 
I want to have a fabulous adoption party to THANK everyone for their generous and loving support!
I want to our family picture taken at the court house.
And I WANT that piece of paper that says we are his family FOREVER!

So whether the answer is yes or no I wish they would just get it over with so we can say he's ours forever and ever!!

 This picture really says it all!!  Happy Birthday sweet Dylan!!

Let our vaction week begin, and let's hope its less eventful, this Mama is tired :o)

Baby's Firsts!

I have alway loved the first year of each of my children's life.  Everything is so new!

Tomorrow is Mason's first egg hunt.  He could care less, but I'm excited.  I want kid pictures with eggs!

Then Sunday he will get his first Easter basket,
go to his first Easter service,
and enjoy his first family Easter celebration! 

And while he may sleep through most of it, I know how inportant this first Easter is for this baptized child of God!

Last year I dreamed about having another child to celebrate this holiday with...this year I get to enjoy my dream.  God is SO good!
