Well, there hasn't been a whole lot going on with us lately. Still gathering paperwork, setting up appts, ordering certificates, background checks, filling out forms, etc....OK- so there's a LOT going on with us lately, but nothing too exciting...at least not for any of you :) Being "paper pregnant" isn't as stressful as I thought it would be. Everything just kind of falls into place after you set up appts and order whatever documents you need. It's a lot of waiting...and from what I hear waiting is the name of the game in adoption! We have our 2nd home study meeting this Saturday in Fargo!! We are very excited and have been busy preparing for that. Gathering more documents, forms, and doing some reading on attachment and bonding. From what I see on other blogs this is what we will be talking about for our second meeting. Parenting styles, discipline, attachment, bonding. Our social worker will basically get a feel for what we know/don't know and will fill us in on the rest. Being first time parents it's kind of hard to know how you will parent. It's one of those things that you learn as you go and is different for all families and what works for them. Each kid is different so it's hard to tell until you bring them home what needs will need to be met, etc...It will be nice to get away (even if it's just Fargo) for the weekend. I will post details when we get back :) Have a great weekend!!!!
Until my next post...
