WE GOT OUR NUMBERS!!!!!

Here they are.......







Here is the front of the shirts...it says "TEAM ETHIOPIA"
We got the "number call" yesterday evening. Mike was out of town so I thought it would be fun to have the kiddos "SHOW" him our numbers. I decided not to tell him over the phone. So today we drove to where he was and the kids were wearing these shirts.....it was fun!!!!

Looks like we might be bringing a sweet little Ethiopian Prince home this time:)

NIce to "meet" you too! I think we are #7 now that Rebecca and Dodd got there referral...BUT the people who would now be # 2 (adam and christie) think they may be #1 b/c they don't know for sure if the people in front of them got their referral already! WHOA I am freaking! We could be #6...we started at #13 the 1st week of August! Your children are beautiful!

I keep meaning to leave a comment here. :) I just looked back and saw your whole first journey with your baby girl, and I just about died when I saw all of the waiting to travel...oh my goodness. I do NOT know how you survived.

I don't know how I will survive 3 months, let alone if things go wrong and we wait 4 or 5...OY! We only had to wait 4 weeks the first time around.... sigh. :)

Your children are gorgeous! :)

Oh, and to answer your Q, no, we did not use AGCI the first time around. I don't think they were doing Ethiopian adoptions in 2005, but I could be wrong. We used CHSFS, and they were awesome! So far, I have been just as pleased with AGCI (and they were quoting much shorter wait times than CHSFS).

Yay for being in the wait together!
