SOOOO Excited!

It has been a crazy couple of months!  In June we officially became an aunt and uncle to a beautiful boy named Damian.  He was born on June 10th.  Jess and Eric (my bro) make such great parents and watching them grow into a family has been awesome!  Also, Nathan's sister Emily got married July 9th to a great guy named John.  The wedding was beautiful and made me reminisce about our own wedding day! 

BUT the most exciting day was TODAY!  We received our OFFICIAL HOME STUDY APPROVAL letter, stating we are eligible to be chosen by birth mothers!  A year and half after starting the process we have officially completed all the necessary papers to be eligible.  It is such a milestone in this process.  I was so ecstatic that I took it to show Nate even though he was working.  The smile on his face was incredible!  I can't wait to celebrate with him tonight!
Now on to waiting/praying for the child who is the perfect fit for our family and we are the perfect fit for them!
