Ready and Waiting...!
We are officially in countdown mode. The baby we are hoping to adopt is due any day! And we know she won't go past Wednesday, May 14th! We are so excited, and a little nervous. It's strange and surreal to be "expecting", with no baby belly to see. Mariana is especially excited, since she'll be sharing a room with her baby sister. She helped me put away some baby items and wanted to try them out herself -- I drew the line at actually getting IN the bassinet!

Trying on the baby towel

Our family's bassinet -- Mariana and Jack, and many other babies in my family, have spent their first months sleeping in this bassinet. Thank you, Grandma, for keeping it in such great shape -- 52 years!!
