So much to do...

I am still floating up on a cloud right now. April 3rd will go down as one of the best days of my life only to be replaced by the date that I actually get to hold my daughter in my arms. This has been a long 6 years. I finally feel like my dream of motherhood is coming true. We wouldn't be here right now had we not lived in the heartache, sorrow and roller coaster that was the last 6 plus years. I look at my daughter's face and I know it was all worth it. It doesn't take away the pain of the previous years but I know this is what is meant to be. We are meant to be with her and she with us.

Our road to parenthood was broken but also blessed by God. We truly are blessed. We have a beautiful daughter that we are in awe of and all of this waiting and tears makes total sense. Peanut is our daughter. This is what is meant to be. The stars have aligned and God has brought us our daughter.

I am trying to keep myself busy and trust me I still have a ton of stuff to do to get ready for the trip of a lifetime. We could be leaving in a month. Wow. Today so far I have cleaned out the pantry and now Peanut has a shelf all to herself. There is only a couple cans of formula on it right now but in time that will change.

I am about to throw some Beef Burgundy in the oven and then tackle wiping down all of the shelves in the refrigerator oh and starting some laundry. I am back to full nesting mode. I took a break after our referral and let things slide so I am back to checking things off my list. I also have a HUGE shopping list for tomorrow with things we actually need for the trip. Travel stuff mostly and a few things for Peanut.
