What we are up to is lots and lots of paperwork. We are currently in the middle of our initial paperwork. We've been gathering information and documents that we need now and will need down the road such as birth certificates, marriage license, all past addresses (this took Matt some doing, as we have both moved probably 10 times since high school!!). We made a trip down to the state patrol and got fingerprinted. This was pretty cool actually. They don't use ink and paper any more (imagine that!), it was all electronic. Matt and I just have one document a piece that we have left with the first step- a 15 page essay document that we each have to fill out separately. Some of the questions are ones that we didn't think we'd have to think about yet such as a will and how we plan to dicipline. These are things that we knew would come up eventually, but we kind of thought we'd receive our baby first and then worry about it!!! We're both glad that these things are coming up now though, so that we have time to discuss and prepare.
Once we get all of our paperwork handed in, the home study process will begin. So we are definitely making progress.
