WE ARE MATCHED!

i got a call from our social worker (s/w) on wed. afternoon, in the middle of seeing a patient. when i was able to call her back, she asked if we'd like to be matched, and i thought about it for a while.... :)

2 weeks to the day that she told us that we were active, she told me that a birthmother had picked us! the birthfather is known and has also given his consent. they do not know the sex of the baby, but her ultrasound (u/s) was normal.

here's the bigger news - she is due june 4th!! 2 days after our 6th wedding anniversary. she is here in our state, so that should make things easier not having to do the interstate compact paperwork. the drive there should only be about 3 hrs or so.

not a whole lot of other news at this point. just trying to get things ready. we moved my old day bed out of liffey's room (she was confused when she went into her room this morning when i left.) we sealed the 2 log walls that hadn't been sealed yet (only 6 yrs behind.) :o) hopefully we will be decorating it as a nursery in the next few weeks!
