March Can't Get Here Quick Enough!

Just to catch up those of you who read my blog and not my facebook statuses....

We met with a birthmom due in March.  She liked us and we liked her.  So now we wait for her baby boy to be born.  The baby is full African-American.  I am excited Benjamin will have a baby brother who is brown like him!  I think he will really like that.  He is really starting to point out the fact he is brown and everyone around him is not! 

I was supposed to go to the ultrasound last week but it had to be cancelled.  The birthmom hurt her hip so she ended up in the ER.  She got to go home and last I heard she was still in pain and needing to see an orthapedic doctor.  I have not had an update since last week.

The agency hasn't give us much information since our meeting.  I feel more nervous about this situation, I think because the December baby situation was such a rocky situation that still doesn't feel closed.

Despite being nervous I am excited and it is very hard not to buy baby boy clothes!  I'm trying to hold off until I can go up in the attic and see what baby boy clothes I already have!

So for now we anxiously await March to get here.  The baby is due March 21 but it will be a scheduled C-Section so it will probably be earlier.  The doctor wanted to do an ultrasound to get a more precise due date.  He was thinking she might be due a little later than the 21.  So we really aren't sure!
