Its just missing one thing

Our little girl! We're ready for you little one.....missing you and wondering how your days are.

We're into October now. I see fall approaching, the weather turning colder....much colder in Russia, which makes this Southern California girl nervous. I'm fairly positive it will be into November at least before we get a court date. I'll try and get some kind of update from our agency next week to see what we are still waiting on to be able to submit paperwork to the courts. I continue to keep myself occupied with too much retail therapy. I continue to worry about getting Dylan thru this process as well.....wondering how we both will get thru the long separation when I will stay in Russia for close to a month, especially with his birthday at the end of Thanksgiving when I will hopefully be gone. That makes me sad to think that I could miss his birthday. I'm not sure if I should plan a party earlier in the month when we may still be home.....should I chance it? Luckily he doesn't want to do a big "home" party like we usually do. He wants to do it at one of those bounce-house places so that will make it easier on me. I'll try to keep it small in case it needs to be post-poned, but thats hard as he always wants to invite all his friends and his entire kindergarden class! We will definitely have to pare down that list.
