Our official referral is here... plenty of pictures of our baby boy, included! Dave and I have a date tomorrow night. Once the boys are in bed, we'll be filling out all of the paperwork. (Boy, there is a lot of paperwork!!) Here we go!!!!
boys are beyond the range of anybody's sure understanding, at least when they are between the ages of 18 months and 90 years. ~ james thurber

You know, yesterday I checked your blog in the morning to see if I had missed a post and was all bent out of shape (read: my NY girl attitude bubbled up) to see you still hadn't received your paperwork! I was going to comment again about it, but figured you didn't need *me* to remind you!
So, now I can comment:
