Life at the Waite's

After a week at camp, the kids are on their way home. Fred went to pick them up this morning and they should be arriving any time now. Morgan had a rough few nights missing home, so I am very excited to see her when she gets home. Mason seemed to do fine and have a great time. Even though it was tough listening to Morgan upset on the phone and wanting to come home we decided to have her stick it out and stay. I think we made the right decision. It will benefit her in the long run.
Miles update - There has only been one referral accepted since we were put on the wait list and it was for a girl, so we stay at #12. I am hopeful that there will be some referrals accepted in the near future and we will be able to move up in the line. I spoke to our agency this week and she said that they have to wait until they receive all the child's information in before making a referral(this information trickles in). They expect to be making some referrals in the near future, and they seem to come in batches. That means that they will have a lot of referrals for a few weeks and then "nothing" for a few weeks.
Liam update - All dossier documents have been certified and have now been sent off to be authenticated. I should have the documents back by Thursday and our agency should get them by Friday of next week. I am so ready for all our documents to be done and sent to China! Still looking at probably January for travel. Here is a picture I received of him today & they referred to him as the "wild man". Uh-oh....


Home - as some of you know we placed our house up for sale last year and with this economy and the price bracket we fall in, there have been very little home showings. This week we have had two showings, so I am hopeful that this is a turnaround in the market for our area. Our home is plenty big enough for our family, however the way it is set up is not conducive for our growing family without making some major adjustments. Plus, we want to be closer to the kids school. With that being said, please pray for our house to sell before the arrival of our two little boys! Here is a picture of our house, if you know of anyone moving to our area, please pass it along.
