missy - February 5, 2010 - 2:34 pm

okay, totally bizarre. i feel like i know one of the girls in the chuckee cheese pic. the one in the front isn’t named stephanie by any chance, is she? if not, she has a doppleganger in ohio. ๐Ÿ™‚

Tara Neal - February 5, 2010 - 2:35 pm

I love guessing games! Even though I’m not the best at it I’ll have to try because the T-shirt is toooo cute!….boy-#19 and girl-#27.

Sarah Beth - February 5, 2010 - 3:19 pm

Hi Andrea! I love your blog, your ideas are wonderful! My guess is 30 and 17 – I really have no idea – just a guess! Praying these numbers fall incredibly fast, so you can be with your sweet baby.

Karee - February 5, 2010 - 3:25 pm

I’m so anxious to hear your new numbers…so I’m going to play. 28 and 17. ๐Ÿ™‚

admin - February 5, 2010 - 5:28 pm

Hee, hee. OK…you can guess more than twice;). Put your thinkin’ caps on…you are close:). And one person has been off just by one!

Shannon - February 5, 2010 - 5:30 pm

28 and 18? Can I guess 3 times?:)

Shannon - February 5, 2010 - 5:31 pm

No wait, I’m going with 28 and 17!

Shannon - February 5, 2010 - 5:51 pm

kellycoury - February 5, 2010 - 11:43 pm

HILARIOUS! Great memories! Look at my bangs. Great game, and I love that shirt!

Jen - February 9, 2010 - 10:35 am

We are currently on the waitlist to adopt a child from Ethiopia through AGCI. Can you tell me what the listserv is? Thanks!

New numbers!

Nope. We didn’t get them yet. What a teaser to put that as my header;). I am discovering my lack of patience during our wait. We have our USCIS fingerprint appointment tomorrow at 10am. Pray the results come back before our referral does. But for now…I’d settle for updated numbers…much lower than last month;). And […]

admin - February 5, 2010 - 12:25 am

Sorry K! I just want my baby home:). BUT…if I can’t have him/her home…might as well come hang out with you and drive YOU crazy! Can’t wait to see ya!!!!

Kim - February 5, 2010 - 5:36 am

You are killin me. Our wait was 26 months long while we served as foster parents to the twins. That was the song we choose for Sam & Lucy’s adoption video at our celebration brunch after our final court date! What sweet memories you are in store for!
Love & Blessings from Hong Kong,
Kim

Jenny - February 5, 2010 - 8:20 am

still no numbers??? they’ve gotta be coming today! praying you’re a good chunk lower!!!

Amy - February 5, 2010 - 11:47 am

That was a cruel joke ๐Ÿ™‚ Maybe I should put “GOT THE CALL” as my header and maybe it will help with this agonizing wait ๐Ÿ™‚ I don’t know what is going on but this wait is getting so stinking hard!!!

Thinking of you today. Praying you get your FDL in record time ๐Ÿ™‚

Amy @ Filled With Praise - February 5, 2010 - 12:40 pm

Nice! You got me all excited! I was talking to Doug Frazier about our new numbers email and those referral last night ๐Ÿ™‚

We will be at Kristi’s Monday! I am so excited to get to finally meet you in person ๐Ÿ™‚
Blessings,
Amy

Chocolate Kabobs Valentine Treats (Scripture Reading: Exodus 10:1-12:51)

I’ve heard from several of my sweet blog readers they now have fun Valentine window decorations in their home! For those of you who ended up doing most of it yourself because you have little ones, the more you do cutting crafts–the easier it will get for your little ones. I didn’t start my crafts […]

Wednesday – One Year Bible Study (Exodus 7:14-9:35)

Yesterday was a rainy, yucky day—we pulled out the play dough, read books, tooks naps together and even ordered Chinese take-out for dinner. Our dinner guests were full of grace and were happy just have our company verses a home cooked meal. Thank you Dentons:) And I hear the groundhog didn’t see his shadow…ugh. I […]

what a sweet moment with your laney. bedtime is so sweet when i can rise above the exhaustion and not think about all i have to get done after they go to bed, but just BE in the moment. thanks for the reminder. great find. great pix. looks like a neat room.

Ashley Scott - February 3, 2010 - 6:04 pm

Hi Andrea! Thank you for being so faithful with the bible study. It has been such an encouragement to my heart this month. I admit, this has been an intense week and I am behind! So, I’m looking forward to catching up with all of you. I don’t know about you guys, but when things get crazy and I am busy, one of the first things to go is my bible reading and time with the Lord – and those are the times I need Him the most! We are such silly creatures!
I adore reading the sweet stories about your kids. Can’t wait to have my own!! I look forward to meeting you guys soon!

I have special songs for my children too! LOVE IT! Love to sing as a family, and love to hear the songs my children make up and sing too about God, His Love, and our family! That is a HUGE gift from God to us ๐Ÿ™‚

Alisha G. Robertson - February 5, 2010 - 11:57 pm
