And let me tell you. He is tooooooo cute. His social worker FINALLY emailed us an updated photo. I'm sorry I can't share, but you understand. He has the prettiest blonde hair, blue eyes, long eye lashes, pretty skin!! The water works started the minute I laid eyes on that picture. I absolutely lost it and was very sad that he wasn't already with us. All I can think is that he is our son! He should be with us! It's amazing how the bonding has already taken place. I don't know how that's possible, but maybe that's the miracle of adoption.
I sent another email to his SW today telling her that I won't be able to travel more than an hour from home soon (I told her 32 weeks but I think it's more like 34-36??? I have no idea. I just wanted to start a fire under her!). That's about 5 1/2 weeks away. Since he is in Dallas and that's a 3 1/2 hour car ride away, we have to start thinking about these things. It's taken 2 1/2 months just to get a photo. I can only imagine how long it will take to actually do something productive. All I'm getting is that she's not the only one involved and things have to happen in a certain order, blah, blah, blah.
I guess I spoke too soon the other day about baby moving like crazy. She's been pretty calm the past 2 days. And I don't like it! It scares the hell out of me! When she's moving I know she's ok. But then I start to panic if I don't feel her for a little while. A friend of mine said she went to the ER 5 times during her pregnancy because she couldn't feel the baby move. Of course, he was fine and is now 7 years old! It's working my nerves!! I'll be really glad to meet her when the time is right.
I start classes again on Monday. It's an online class, pharmacology, and it should be interesting. I am going to miss having classmates though. I'm sure I'll have enough to keep me busy.

YAY for getting a picture.
Oh Leah, I so wish I could see your little boy. He sounds adorable!
Good thing for lighting a fire under her :) and I agree with what you said on my blog - I also just want them here and alive!!!
I hope one day you can post a picture! He sounds so cute! I can't wait until he comes home to you!!!

I'm such a sucker for blue eyes!
I hope we get to see a picture soon :)
I used to worry about Autumn if I hadn't felt her move in a while. I would sit and count her kicking until I counted 8 kicks. I'd poke her and move her so she'd wake up and kick me. I was WAY paranoid. lol
