Okay, the real entry:
First of all, I am so behind on email- and I am so sorry. It's just been so insane around here. I really feel terrible about it. I read everything, and work on responses, but usually get called away before I can finish the reply and email it. I promise to try and catch up. Especially to those who have had questions about health conditions and adoption/homestudy, our agency, and Cupcake. I hope you haven't given up on me.
Tom is leaving in LESS THAN SIX DAYS. We've been rushing around trying to organize for both the trip and the potential move to the new house. Today it sunk in just how much we need to do to prepare for travel, and we got our lists together. I sort of got a kick in the ass when I went to someone's site who is traveling to China in over a month, and she's already packed! OMG. I sort of envy that. I could do that, but Tom tends to be more last minute (especially with work the way it is right now) and it's too hard. Tomorrow we are going to Walgreens to buy everything on the list our adoption doctor gave us. It's a LOT of stuff. After that, we are going to my parents' (currently baby central) to pick out Cupcake's clothes, accesories, etc. We still need to wash her clothes. One thing at a time.
As far as The House Which Will Never Be Finished, no real work has been done since I last wrote. None. What that means is that there is probably no way we are going to close on the house and be moved in by the time Tom and Cupcake return. I am slowly becoming okay with the idea, even though it's been a heartbreak for me. I never imagined bringing Cupcake home to anywhere but the house, being able to spend her first few days here devoted to her. It looks as if the move won't happen until Tom gets back.
But who cares, cause Cupcake's coming home!!
