Updates

Isaac with a cute kitty, but not ours! I don't think Matt will ever go for it.

This week we have our homestudy update completed. We just have to sign the papers. Our re-fingerprinting appointment is scheduled for this Saturday. Our new medical forms are complete and on our way to our adoption specialist. Everything should be ready for another year of waiting...but since we should be next in line it better not be another year!!!!!
On another note, I asked one of my friends if she was pregnant yet? I told her we know what it it feels like to be over 12 months pregnant, not comfortable:(

Even Closer!!

We should be next in line for a little one! I wondered if I could sleep last night or not. I know it could still happen this week and if not it should be in the next month or so. The family ahead of us received their call yesterday afternoon! Congratulations to the Matthews family, they have a new little boy.
Isaac is doing much better, we are very thankful. Thank your for your prayers.

What a weekend

Finally on Saturday morning we took Isaac to the doctor. His respirations were so high on Friday night it really concerned us. We talked to the doctor at 4:00 a.m. but waited to take him in until the office opened a few hours later. He received a breathing treatment and then went to the hospital for another chest x-ray. They found pneumona again, same spot. He is on antibiotics and breathing treatments at home. What a day we had. Matt and I were both awake most of the night, which made us not feel so great.
Last night was better. His breathing was still quick, but not as bad. He was able to keep one dose of antibiotics down as well.
Thank you to friends who prayed and those of you who brought stuff over for us, mashed potatoes hit the spot for me. The probiotics and chocolate syrup were perfect! I am off to church and then Matt's parents will watch him tonight so we can go to church together.

Prayers

Isaac started his first week of preschool right after labor day. He is really enjoying it! He had just recovered from pnuemonia and was feeling great.
Unfortunetely, this week he seems to have started with a runny nose/cough/fever again. Needless to say I am mad. I hate these things and especially hate what it does to his body and fun plans we have. I spent much of yesterday and today in prayer. Praying for complete healing in his little body. I am not giving up!! We can take medicine several times a day so why can't I pray the Word of God over him several times as well? I know God wants us to be healthy so we can do his work. Psalm 107:20 "He sent his word, and healed them and delivered them from their destruction." Isaiah 55:11 "The Word of God will accomplish what it was sent out to do."
Thank you Jesus for dying for our salvation, healing and protection.
No other news of our baby. I still think it will be October, my favorite month of the year!
We are praying for those waiting, quick court dates and passing the first time!
