CCAA Update

Here is what Mike found on the CCAA website:

• The CCAA has finished the review of the adoption application documents registered with our office before August 31, 2006.
  
• The CCAA has finished the placement of children for the families whose adoption application documents were registered with our office before December 8, 2005.

So, we're 17 months beyond where the current placements are occurring. That doesn't necessarily mean a 17 month wait... since sometimes things slow down. But we'll see... certainly we won't be there for the Summer Olympics next year. Maybe a year later?

Quilt Squares

We don't really have any news on the adoption wait other than they are currently on the December 2005 log-in dates. (We were May 2007). So, I'll talk about the quilt....

We've received a few squares already. Here are portions of each fabric.

This is a darling square from the Dehlers. It's an old top of their daughter's that says "Once upon a time in a far away land there was a princess". I about cried. It's perfect.

This came from a sorority sister of mine (and her husband), the Evans.

The above star fabric came from our friends, the Slupes.

This rose-patterned fabric came from another sorority sister and her husband, the Wolfes.

This ballerina-slipper fabric came from family friends, the Hoffmans.

This music-driven fabric came from family friends, the Parthrees.

This apple-print fabric came from longtime friends, the Hoffmans (Jr.!)

This ladybug print came from church-friends, the Holdredges.

Eight down. Only 92 more to go! To those that have already brought in squares, thank you so much for thinking of us and Baby #4. If you haven't sent it in, no worries. You'll have plenty of time.
