also, she is sleeping at more consistent 4 hour stretches overnight. [...]

our homestudy went just fine. our social worker is a very nice lady who is obviously excited for us to finalize the adoption. at one point, as we discussed how grateful we feel to be a family, she got a little misty-eyed.
the woman definitely has a knack for pointing out awkward [...]

i’ve had some questions recently about the coach and how he is doing with the birth of little jude. i’m sorry i haven’t posted before now. he is in our everyday lives so much that when i say “we” he is included.

for those of you wondering where jude’s favorite zebra came from, i have an answer for you: cost plus world market. i checked their website, and couldn’t find the zebra, but jude’s gabby (ie the coach’s mom) purchased it at a houston store in late april/early may.
two weeks old.
