Home study application almost complete

We are finally wrapping up the last few things left on our homestudy application.  Hopefully by tomorrow we will have everything completed and in the mail by the end of the week.  Oh my goodness it was a doozy to complete!  We both had to get physicals, fingerprinted, criminal background checks, write an autobiography, take photos...the list goes on forever!  But it will be well worth it in the end when we get to welcome a little bundle of joy into our lives.  Once the paperwork gets back to the agency, they will contact us to set up an appointment to have a home visit with a social worker.  We are not sure exactly what all that will entail but we are ready to get this started.

We have a ton of stuff to get done at the house to get ready for the visit - Diesel hasn't been so kind to our decor =).  Anyway, we ordered new flooring for our upstairs and we will start painting this coming week.  We have started looking at different decor ideas for the nursery...so far we know we want a tree with an owl or something like that.  Any ideas are certainly welcome! 

We will keep you guys posted on the progress and again we are so very thankful for all of the prayers and support!
