It's a boy!!!!!!!! We just recieved our referral.

Yeah us!

So excited!

I/We just got "the call" from International Adoption Net and we have a VERY handsome and HEALHY 4 month old waiting for us in Ethiopia. His name is Yared which supposedly is a biblical name (like his Pop's... Me... go figure) I'll have to Google it, later. He will have a more mainstream American name too... we have to figure (fight) that out later.

Anyway, I'm off to look at his picture and cry and make some calls...

Next step- wait for courts to re-open (September) and assign us a "court date"... then go get him... still hopefully by the end of this year!!!!!
