Oct 1, 2012. What's In a Name? It's getting close now! We are in the final part of the process to bring our son home from Ethiopia! We are busy getting ready, things like putting his nursery together, deep cleaning the house, washing all the baby stuff (who knew. Would be a big project? And such. Once his nursery is done I'll share it on the blog for those that care!

http://traceandrandee.blogspot.com/2012/11/sharing-rest-of-story.html
Nov 18, 2012. Sharing the Rest of the Story.Part 1. So, hi there. You probably thought this. Little blog was a thing of the past, and to tell you the truth, some days I thought it just might be.

This was to be the FINAL hurdle in our adoption! That night the email did not come. November 19, 2012 at 8:33 AM. I love...

Feb 13, 2013. Sharing the Rest of the Story.Part 3. I know, that. Known this for some time but I guess I'm finally getting around to admitting it. I apologize (again) for taking so long to write out our story. Life has been full, and writing does not come super easy or naturally to me, therefore, it takes me forever. If you are just joining me now and realize you need to catch up, you can see Part 1 HERE. We arrived in Ethiopia Oct 14th and here is a short email I sent out that night:. Still no email fro...

Dec 4, 2012. Sharing the Rest of the Story.Part 2. In case you missed it, you can catch up on Part 1 here. Again, all parts are very detailed =). Morning to say the least! Finally around 3pm I got a call from our agency rep letting me know that the important person in our case did make it to the embassy for the appointment, BUT that the embassy rescheduled the appointment for the next day so a new translator could accompany them. W H A T? So, we waited again to hear from our agency about the interview...
