Gertrude will be here soon!

Only three more days and Gertrude will be here! It is finally hitting home that we will see our girl in just a matter of days. Tena made a beautiful poster yesterday to welcome her back and she is giving her one of her new purses filled with candy and a couple cute things from the Target $1.00 section. We had a hosting meeting tonight and it made things so much more real and exciting! Everyone is excited and a little nervous. Most had never hosted before so I felt like a real "seasoned" host!

Tena is beside herself with excitement. Every couple days she'll let a little scream out, just randomly at any given time, and exclaim, "____ days till we get Gertrude!" and say the number of days left. She cannot wait and I have to say we are just as excited. Tena thinks she will want to jump on the trampoline first thing when she gets here. We just got it recently so it wasn't here last time Gertrude visited.

I am so glad we are hosting Gertrude, especially in light of all the delays with the adoption. Still no word on when they will hold the hearing regarding the father's rights.
