1 month, 3 weeks DOWN!!!!

The weeks just keep clicking by! We are through a whole month and three weeks to the day. I have been telling Jason that it could be 'any day' since day one of being on the waiting list but now that some time has past its becoming more and more of a reality!! I am sooo excited. What seems so crazy is the unability to prepare. We wont know our baby's sex, or age until we get our referral so I cant buy anything, uggghhh! I was shopping the other day for Ella and saw the most adorable baby outfits and wanted to take them all home. It makes me wish Ella was that size again, so I could just cuddle her and kiss her (she has zero time for that now)! My gut feeling is that March is going to be our month for a referral. I have no idea why but thats just my prediction. So know that if March passes us by with out a baby I am going to be totally bumed! I think that March will be here before we know it. We are going to the Houston Rodeo at the beginning of the month and then to Vail for a spring break ski trip. Can not wait!!! Ella is going to be the cutest little ski bunny. We used to go skiing every Christmas from the time I was 5 til I was in college. I will admit (just b/c my mom and sister are probably reading this and totally calling me out) I am not really into the whole ski/cold thing. I'm really going just to see Ella play in the snow, to shop, go to a spa, have some hot toties, eat a ton of fudge from the best fudge store ever, just have a little r&r. So the whole trip my mom and I will get harassed for not hiting the mountain at opening and skiing until our legs give out. The rest of my family are big time. My sister I think has the entire mountain mapped out in her head. She will be up there ALL day, EVERY day. All the power to her!

I am more "lodge bunny" than "ski bunny" as well. Not a big fan of the cold! We are right behind you, with 1 month 2 weeks down. It's SO exciting! We could think of it as being halfway there! Woo-Hoo!

too funny about skiing but oh so true. i can just hear it now when you say you are going with me to the spa, shopping etc!! and you are a great skier----maybe you will really like it better since it should be warmer skiing in march! and ella all bundled up in her pink ski parka with striped gloves---too cute a ski bunny she will be!
i kinda think march will be the referral month too. i cant wait to see this baby's face. i hope its only 6 months old so i can really cuddle it!! so exciting! mommie
