Today, we went to our adoption agency's office for our match meeting. This is when we make plans with the birthmother for what she wants on the birth day. We also discussed our plans for after the birth for visits.

We had a wonderful talk with the birthmother, it was mediated by our adoption counselor. The BM decided that she would rather us wait at our hotel until the baby was born. Since she is bipolar, she is worried that she may do or say something that will hurt us. The BMs mom will call us when they are ready for us to join them at the hospital. The BM is very confident in her decision to place the baby with us. She understands that she is not ready or able to provide for the baby, and she thinks we will make great parents.

We also bought a car seat and stroller today. The car seat is rated the #1 in the country by several officials. The stroller is one of those jogging one's, and it matches the car seat. We can actually attach them to each other. It's red and black with some silver, so we are planning on loading it up with Razorback memorabilia.

We got some really cute clothes from my Grandma today for the baby. Thanks Granny!

Paul and I want to thank you all for the prayers. We'll keep you updated.
