Jeremiah is here!

So I really suck at updating this thing! As the post says, Jeremiah is here! But let me back track a bit! Our pregnancy was really a breeze! We always said that we knew God gave us the pregnancy because of how easy things went. I never had morning sickness, my blood and urine numbers were always great, I only gained 6 pounds, and never had any of the things that they test you for. Last time I updated, we didn't even know that Jeremiah was a boy. I had a gut feeling that he was a boy, but Matt was holding out for a girl. On June 26th, we got to have the gender scan. My favorite thing about pregnancy was getting to have ultrasounds! The tech took her time taking measurements and showing us all the parts...4 chamber heart, hands, feet, head, tummy, etc, etc. Then when I thought she was down by his legs, I said "so, is that a boy?" She asked if we really wanted to know and I immediately said "YES!" So she found the parts, turned the screen and asked what it was...

Christel's Take on the first meeting

So, we had our first meeting yesterday with Heather, our case worker. She seemed really nice. When she walked out to greet us, she had a huge binder, papers everywhere and I immediately went to being overwhelmed. She handed us the binder and went through what was in it. Its ours to keep and we take it with us to our education classes. The first hour was spent going over papers..what we had turned in, what we needed, etc. She was impressed because we had everything turned in already (she said nobody ever has everything turned in at the first meeting) so Matt and I were pretty happy about that! We also signed a few more papers and got even more papers to fill out...I think we've killed about 100 trees with all the papers we've gotten already. The second and third hour was spent talking about us...how we met, what made us fall in love with each other, how did our families react,etc. I thought it was going well until she asked us why we were going through adoption. We explained tha...

Where has the summer gone??

The last time I wrote was for our 8 year anniversary in June...crazy!!! Our summer has been so busy! It started out in June with our trip to Florida for Alex's graduation! We decided to leave 2 hours before Jeremiah's bedtime thinking he'd sleep the whole night through. Wrong! He had such a hard time staying asleep in his car seat, we pulled over at a gas station at 10pm to recline his seat back further. He slept alright and then woke up and started throwing up all over the place. He continued to throw up until we got to florida...I lost count at number 13...poor baby! We arrived in Florida the afternoon of June 4th and relaxed for a bit and then went to Tristan's middle school graduation! Tristan got all dressed up in a suit and just looked so handsome! It was like his life flashed before my eyes...what happened to the little 3.5 year old I met for the first time in 2004? Jeremiah started getting cranky before the ceremony even started. I had him in the stroller so I ...
