Waiting Game

I have been waiting to update the blog in hopes of having more information to share.
When we showed up for our meeting we found out that our ongoing worker had quit and a new one had been assigned. The new worker was unaware of the meeting so did not have many answers. I have been waiting for her to get back to me after meeting with her supervisor. We found out they have to continue to pursue the potential father which was a disappointment to us. He has not responded to any contact thus far so we are hoping he will not be interested. We do know it could be approximately 60 days until the court interjects and then once that occurs we could have an additional 2 months for a termination date. Although we had hoped for a termination date by the end of summer we would be thrilled if this happens by the end of the year. I am constantly reminding myself that it is out of our control and God's plan is more perfect than we can even imagine.

 Our sweet boy had his well check last week and he is more than perfect! 30 pounds of goodness who was ahead of everything the doctor asked. The only thing she suggested was that we get rid of the binky which we knew was coming. We decided we would just take it away like we did the bottle and see what happened. Our sweet boy put himself to sleep with no problems and has not asked or cried for a binky. We are so lucky!
We are trying to soak up ever last second of summer. We have been swimming, going to the zoo, snuggling and reading lots of books! We had a great morning and the zoo where our sweet boy and niece got to feed the giraffe, ride the train, and see our favorite Africa exhibit.

Our sweet boy loves to read books and we had to purchase another book shelf to put them on. This small bookshelf is light enough for him to move it around. When it was time to get ready for bed he pushed it to where he was blocked in and could read without us bothering him :)  

We are praying that our sweet boy gets to stay with us forever and that things start to move forward. We are so blessed to have this boy in our life and I never knew I could love someone as much as I love him. My heart feels like it could explode! I am so blessed to be his momma and could have not have picked a better boy if I would have been given the chance.
