First off, we had our Home Study update this past Wednesday and everything went really well! Our social worker is really nice and very helpful. I am glad to have it out of the way for now, we will have another one next year. As soon as she sends us our home study packet we can apply for our updated I 171-H and that'll be good until next year as well. We have new paperwork to fill out called Concurrent Family Building, which is free but changes things a little bit for us. Allan and I are so excited to announce that God has blessed us with a pregnancy! We are pregnant and due in October!!! :) We asked our social worker if this would affect the adoption and her only concern is we need a bigger home since we only have one extra bedroom. So, we are busy looking into finding another home before next year when we have our next home study. Since our referral for a child is still years away, this pregnancy won't affect it at all. :) God has perfect timing and we are so blessed that we will have the opportunity to raise two children. Below are some pictures we took to announce our little secret. We wanted to make sure everyone knows we are still adopting! God has called us to adopt and we will continue until we can bring our baby home! :) All praise and glory to God, He is so good!!
Also, Thank you to everyone who continues to stand by us and support us! We are so grateful for each of you! :)
