I thought that I had posted about this, but apparently I had not! It is with great joy and thankfulness that Todd, Libby and I would like to announce that we are DTC on Wednesday, November 22, 2006, for Ella Paige!!! We are so excited to be done with the paperchase and now we just relax and wait. The wait is at about double of what we waited for Libby, so it's going to be a long wait. We are praying that the wait will decrease but I don't know if it will. We waited 6 1/2 months for Libby's referral and right now the wait is about 14-15 months. Ridiculous! We are just going to go on with our life as normal since it is a long wait ahead of us and we wont have Ella home until probably mid to late 2008. Now we are wondering how the olympics will affect either our travel or referral. We'll keep you updated on our status. Now we are just waiting for our LID. We probably wont hear about it until sometime in January. LID's are usually about a month after DTC, so we're expecting a late December LID.
Hold on Ella Paige, mommy, daddy and your big sister are on their way to get you!!! : )

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
I know that is has been a while since I have updated our blog!!! So much has changed in the past month since I've done it!
We had a very wonderful first Halloween with Miss Libby. She was an adorable little monkey I must say! : ) Libby and mommy went down the street to our neighbors and did a little trick-or-treating and then we went to Nana and Papa's to help them hand out candy and relax there. I think that Libby preferred the handing out candy over actually getting it which is fine with mommy and daddy! It was a wonderful fall evening to be with our family and we loved it. A wonderful first Halloween.
Well we are officially DONE paperchasing for Ella Paige!!! I can't believe it!!! We were planning on being DTC this friday, November 24th, but the CHI offices are going to be closed on friday due to Thanksgiving. SO..... they are sending the dossiars out on WEDNESDAY, November 22nd!!! Yes, we are going to be DTC in just 2 days!!!! Then the wait can officially begin for Ella Paige! We have requested a little girl, ayap, 0-9 months.
We are having our whole family over at our house on Thanksgiving. I will post pictures after the festivities. Enjoy the pictures below!
