The Girls' Room!

So we talked to our case worker, Julie, last night and she confirmed that we are officially number 10 on the girl's waiting list, but she also said that there is only one family ahead of us who are willing to accept a child over 12 months, so, of course, now I am even more anxious! They can never tell when they will have "your" child come into their care...only God knows when that will happen, but I am now "buzzing" on that news and hoping for a sooner rather than later call. I should know after going through this three times before that it is better to think "later" and be surprised earlier, than to get your hopes up for "soon" and drive yourself crazywaiting. I can't help myself though, and like I told my good friend, the anticipation is one of the blessings of this roller-coaster journey.

Most of you that know me also know that the Girl's room has been ready for months now (when I have something in my head, I have to do it "now"!) It came out really nice and I can't wait to have both of my little princesses together in their room. I guess I'd better work on getting "L" out of my bed at night first though :)

I love dragonflies, and I'm not a girly-girl (neither is "L") so I did their room in a buttery yellow color with green and blue dragonflies. I found the cutest wall decals and added some embellishments of little dragonflies I've found here and there. They have matching beds and will share a dresser and a pretty yellow rocking chair.

This is one of the wall decals...I just love it! The dragonflies are actually 3D and are glued to the wall.

This will be "H's" bed when she comes home...soon I hope!




Ok...so I'm ready, the kids are ready (I think) and the room is ready...so come on home baby H! We love you and can't wait to hold you and kiss you and watch you sleeping sweetly in your new room!
