I can't believe tomorrow will be one week we have had our referral of Kirsten. Our agency informed us that the director is going there at the beginning of November and they will allow us to send 1 gallon size ziplock of stuff to her. So today was spent hunting through the closet of clothes she already has and picking out the 0-3 mts. and 3-6 mts. stuff, washing and packing them. I originally had 11 outfits stuffed into a gallon size ziplock (don't ask me how but I did) but I have now settled on sending 8. We are also sending disposable camera's for her foster mom to take pictures of her with, which I am kind of excited about because then we will have some picture for her scrapbook of the months she spent in Guatemala.

So we have decided that we are going to go for a visit trip sometime in January. Tom and Debbie are coming with us, which makes me feel 100% more comfortable because I don't know how much I would have liked being 1000's of miles away with a baby for the first time. And of course I am already thinking about stuff to bring....more baby clothes and cameras, video camera, etc...I am going to have her foster mom give us back the disposable cameras I'm sending now while we are there that way we can start her scrapbook (help keep me busy in the final few months)

Oh and BTW finalized homestudy should be here tomorrow!!! YIPPIE!
