our information packet
We got our 'Information about Ethiopia' packet today, the "green folder" for everyone associated with AAI. I thought it would have more info about the country by how it was described to me, but it's more about raising an adopted child. It is good advice, but a lot of it has to do with adopting an older child. And, it's not from a Christian perspective, so I disregard a lot of it. It had a letter in the forefront stating that we will receive our dossier in about two weeks! YEAH!! We're so so excited. Meanwhile, I've been buying things for our baby's room. Yes, before I know if it's a boy or girl, before we are officially on the waiting list. :) Tim and I decided that a "safari/jungle" theme would suit this baby's room well. The walls are already yellow, and I got a small giraffe bookshelf and a little lion rug. I would love to find either a safari animal-type border or even better, find someone who can make an awesome mural on our wall of animals! I really wish I were artistically inclined. :)

Yeah! Another step accomplished! Yeah, the info packet isn't very helpful for infant adoption. I still have some of it to read. Good idea with the nursery! You should post some pictures of the things you bought so far. And yeah for the dossier packet coming soon! :)
thanks for your nice comment about the t-shirts! :) we actually made them ourselves. we made them for our nephew and 3 nieces, and we also made one for the daughters of one of our best friends that says
"waiting for our friend from Ethiopia" with their little heads on it. hehe. cute picture on your blog by the way. where'd you get it?
