It's Official!!!

Last week Mike and I had our final hearing in front of a judge to finalize Zane's adoption.  It was a quick meeting but such a relief.  He is forever and always ours!  I still can't believe it some days that we have a son!  God works in amazing ways to take us down a path that we never expected back when we started our journey for Mia.  I just told someone the other day that from the day we got the call that we were chosen to adopt to today has been shorter than a pregnancy - just over 6 months (and Zane is 5 months old)!  Crazy and wonderful!

It's Easter time!

Today my mom and I went to the local candy shop where the Easter Bunny was making a stop.  Zane seemed to really like him!  I LOVE being a mom!!  It's so much fun!!  

Finally 2006

I know we are still a loooong way away from our referral date but it's comforting to know that they are finally in 2006, our referral year. For the first time in a long time I feel like we are making progress. Ironically this week also marks 3 anniversaries for us - 2 years since we received our orientation paperwork from CCAI, 1 1/2 years since our LID and 6 months since we found out we were chosen for Zane! I must admit, I thank God for "the wait", thank God for Zane! He really does have a plan and it all happens in His timing!
