Today was the next step in our adoption process:\u00a0 Jean came to our home and had an interview with both of us together.\u00a0 We also gave her a tour of our condo and introduced her to Jaquie.\u00a0 We did a preliminary safety checklist, and she talked about what sorts of things we need to take care of now, versus what we need to be prepared to do around the time of placement (i.e., buying a second fire extinguisher versus installing a baby gate on the stairs).\u00a0 We’ll be meeting with her again sometime in October.<\/p>\n
We have Jim’s interview and some paperwork left to do, and also the project that is most nerve-wracking of all (to me): our photo collage.\u00a0 We need to put together several scrapbook-ish pages of pictures with fun captions and stuff.\u00a0 Unfortunately, neither of us are very concientious photographers, so we have very few from the last five years.\u00a0 If any of you happen to have pictures with us in them and would be willing to mail\/email us a copy, we’d really appreciate it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
