medical update

we received a medical update today. she went to the doctor on 9/4. she weighs 15 pounds. she is starting to sit up and coos now. she will be 6 months old on October 1. it's gone by so fast, and we still have never met. how odd this entire process feels sometimes.

Family Court

we found out last week (9/5/07) that our case has entered family court. apparently, they were awaiting interview scheduling.

i have discovered that i now live in a constant state of fear. it's just not healthy. i'm so afraid that something is going to go wrong and that we will not be able to bring out daughter home - ever.

on the upside - my husband is making Stella's crib and sent drawings for it to be cut out (he hasn't had time to do it) and it is now ready to be picked up :) of course it still has to be put together - but goodness this is a big step!!!! i've only been nagging him about this thing for the past FOUR MONTHS!!!! it's going to be PERFECT though!!!! i can't wait to see it ALL DONE.
