http://theyoungergang.blogspot.com/2012/04/finally-post.html
Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! Apr 30, 2012. Finally . a post! When I said I wouldn't promise how soon I would post, I never imagined it would be this long! I'm almost too embarrassed to actually do it. I could just shut down the blog and maybe no one would remember, right? But I want the record of all of this as much as I want to share it. THANKS to those friends who have asked about it . you guys are my motivation to actually get something up here! So here goes. :). I know people...

The Younger Gang: My Way-Past-Due Update ... and Lots of Excitement!!
http://theyoungergang.blogspot.com/2012/09/my-way-past-due-update-and-lots-of.html
Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! Sep 26, 2012. My Way-Past-Due Update . and Lots of Excitement! So what's been going on around here since May? Here goes a QUICK rundown of the past several months in our adoption:. In June we sent off our FBI check requests. They told us it could take about 13 weeks to get the results back from them. But just a couple of weeks later we had them in our hands! I guess Cole's writing all over the envelope really worked. :). This is the family-style Ethio...

The Younger Gang: May 2012
http://theyoungergang.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! May 23, 2012. Time for an update! A few days after we sent off our contracts, we were told that they had been approved. Hurray! Not that we were worried, but it's always great to be official. We got our Adoption Planner a few days after that. Tuesday of last week we had our first (phone) meeting with our case worker at AGCI! She talked us through most of the steps we'll be taking from now until we turn in our dossier. Wow! AGCI has a rule that we have...

The Younger Gang: Surprises and Deadlines
http://theyoungergang.blogspot.com/2012/10/surprises-and-deadlines.html
Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! Oct 31, 2012. The past month or so has been full of surprises. Ok, just one really, but it's big enough to fill up a whole month! Let me back up. One of the . interesting? Well, God has incredible timing! And if we ever wondered if His hand was in all of this, we wouldn't now. We found out early this month that we are expecting our third baby on June 3rd! So they announced the policy change 7 weeks ago, and I am 9 weeks pregnant. Coincidence? And no, ...

Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! Sep 2, 2011. Waiting is NOT My Favorite Sport. Patience is a virtue . so I'm told. But it's not one I currently possess to a high degree unfortunately. Yes It has been another month since I posted last. No. I will no longer make any promises about how often I'll post. :) Apparently blogging is also not my favorite sport . or at least not the one I'm best at. I actually do really enjoy it. But why haven't I posted? I also learned that what appeared wou...

The Younger Gang: July 2011
http://theyoungergang.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! Jul 29, 2011. A Heartbreak and a Praise. Oh what to write? Well, we have been waiting on news about what happened at the meeting with the other couple's lawyer and hadn't gotten word. And honestly I've been too chicken to call and ask . until today. So I got up the courage to call this morning. She told me that the birth mother has decided for sure to give consent for him to be adopted. A HUGE praise! Maybe He wanted to work on our hearts? THAT He has...

The Younger Gang: June 2011
http://theyoungergang.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Waiting to bring our precious one home from Ethiopia! Jun 15, 2011. I've known for as long as I can remember that I wanted to adopt. Why? I don't really know. I don't know why I wanted to when I was little at least - except for the fact that God has been preparing me for this amazing journey my whole life. When Cole and I got married, he was open to the idea, but didn't really have a desire to adopt. But over the years, God has changed that, and it has been such a fun thing to watch! We know that there a...
