We arrived back in Cleveland last night around seven and picked up
Mandy from Stephanie and Steve's. Thank you for watching our big puppy. The trip went well. We learned so much in the two six hour sessions. The agency is great and wants everyone to be informed before going through the entire process. All though everything that we heard wasn't completely positive, I am thankful for their honesty. Like Stephanie said last night, it probably helps eliminate couples who are not ready for adoption yet. Jeremy and I are still on board. We received the name and number of our home study social worker. I plan to call her Monday or Tuesday to set up our home study. Her name is Beth. Everyone that has been through a home study that I talked to says that after they look back, it wasn't bad at all. This is what I keep reminding myself of as we get closer to our visit. Beth (number 2) is our adoption social worker who will be helping us once we are matched with a birth mom. She was very kind and helpful. There are somethings to do before then. Tomorrow, Ryan and Angela are coming over for a pre-fire inspection. Tuesday, we have Infant CPR. We still have to get the baby basics class in some time soon. Our final fire inspection is the twenty-eighth of this month. The profile will need to be sent in, but overall, we're in good shape. Thank you to everyone for the pictures. More updates to come soon.

Wow, it is all coming together so quickly for you both. I don't know 2 other people more prepared to have a baby!!! I love you both, and it is so nice to log on and see how things are going. Looking forward to the next steps.
