We got our finger prints back from the FBI! I was told that it could take up to 8 weeks so when we got them back in less than 2 I was shocked. We both had our physicals done. Tomorrow we go to the health department for: Drug, HIV and TB testing. Once the results are in we will send it all off to Bethany and that will complete all the paper work (for now).
Next steps:
- Joint Interview with Bethany Christian Services
- Complete book reading assignment: Dear Birthmother
- Second Group Meeting (TBA) with other couples and BCS facilitator
- Begin working on Profile and Birth Mother Letter
It has been really great talking to friends and family and receiving so much support and encouragement. I didn't realize how impactful it would be to hear all the positive support. It really helps and makes me feel like we are not alone while trying to navigate through some very uncharted waters.
A BIG thank you to everyone for your encouragement and support!!

By the way Zach and I are already starting to plan some fun things we can do when yall come.
Don't worry shopping will totally be involved along with golfing for the guys.
To hit on the comment about favorite meals to cook...I would have to say i love to create meals (which can be super scary, but its fun) Zach's favorite meal i cook are my wraps. i sautee onions, garlic and then add in whatever i have in the fridge; carrots, olives, green peppers, alfalfia sprouts (no clue on how to spell that) banana peppers, spinach, chicken and then i toss a tortilla in to a pan with a little olive oil to heat it up then put all the stuff in the tortilla and then zach eats them up.
New favorite cookies are snickerdoodle.
The snickerdoodle cookies are the best thing ever!! I literally eat 10-15 in one sitting!
