August 23, 2011

So Emmett keeps carrying around this baby doll (the only one we have in the house) and is calling him "my sister". He is very diligent with his/her care- making sure we are quiet when she is sleeping and covering him/her up with blankets. He calls her "Coco". It really is quite sweet...

Our official number for August is #39 and in the past week there have been 3 referrals so we are at #36 unofficially. It feels good to be in the 30's and hoping this trend continues!

We are celebrating with friends of ours from church who were amongst those given a referral last week. The were matched with a 4 month old baby boy! We are thrilled for them as they entered parenthood with one phone call! Such joy!

Jeremy said this morning, "I've been thinking about our daughter more lately..."

We are officially #42 for July! (Unofficially #41) So happy for the movement! Would love to get in the 30's by August! Heard that MOWA is up to 15 cases a day. Hope that more and more will be able to be reviewed with each passing day!

Jeremy's mom made quilts for the all of the kids, including our daughter to be! She was so kind to use all of colors from her bedding in her room and it matches perfectly! Her room is slowly coming together!
