Just got the call from Children's Hope that we are officially approved for Ethiopia adoption! Now our home study can continue. It may seem like it doesnt take much for us to get excited here, but we are very excited to move on with this process.

Welcome to Ethiopian adoption, from another CHI'er!!
The bedroom is going to look so nice...I had a pink bedroom too. I love it too that you are going to decorate with a white picket fence too. I can't wait to see it.
