Making Progress

We are getting closer!!!

RMA has all the paperwork they need from me. I got a clean bill of health on my pap last week. I have a phone conference with the Social Worker at RMA on Monday (Oct 28) It should about a 30 min phone call, I think they just want to feel me out, learn a little about my personality etc. (Make sure I'm not crazy! LOL) Then, the next apt is also a phone call with the Doctor at RMA on Nov 25th.  I am really excited to hear everything he has to say!! On Dec 12th we have a tentative "All Day" appointment in NJ @ RMA for myself, Jason, and my IP's (only the Mom will be there since the Dad is oversees ) I am so excited to get to meet her in person!!! At the All Day Apt We will get to meet with the Social worker, the doctor, they will do tests on my uterus, drug testing, blood tests, ect. It will take about a week to get the results from everything that goes on during this very busy day. Once we have everything back we should be able to plan out timeframe for the transfer....BUT as of now we are thinking Late Jan, Early Feb as long as we don't have any delays!!!  While all the above is happing we will be working on having our legal contracts drawn up and executed :-) So exciting!!! Its taken me months to get to this point and its been an even longer journey for my IP's!

I have to share this story....I started using some "Mama Bee Belly butter" to help prep my tummy to carry a baby.  We were at a hotel this weekend and my Daughter needed some lotion, since this was all I had I told her to use it...She is 8 so she can read, she looks at it and goes "Belly Butter?? Ummmm mom why are you putting Butter on your belly?!?!?! That's really weird!" I said; oh honey its to help my tummy stretch to fit a baby.  She shakes her head and goes "but butter???"   Oh I get a kick out of that kid!  Meanwhile, my Youngest is standing there waiting for the conversation to be over then she taps my belly and goes "Mama is "B's" baby in there yet???" :-)

So everything is moving right along....I was looking at some old pictures of me being pregnant with the girls and I am certainly ready to have that belly again!! :-) Its  going to be such a cool experience and already has been so far!
