Do you have an adoption YouTube or Blog? comment here!

Have you sensed someone creeping around your Adoption related YouTube or Blog? Probably little ol' me. (or any of the rest of us caught up in this adoption-internet phenomenon, for that matter)

We live vicariously through each other.... we support each other.... and we just can't seem to stop searching this incredible internet, whilst caught up in an emotional frenzy.

I'm so happy that the Christian presence is so strong, too. Amen!

Do you have an adoption related blog or YouTube? comment to this post, so I can sneak a peek, and our other commenting, following, subscribing, or otherwise "silently creeping around" internet friends can check you out, too.

Blessings, Lynette

I will serve You while I'm waiting!

Little Bundle

Don't good things always come in small packages? Little bundles of love!

My mom sends care packages from Portland, Oregon (and I send them back to her from the Jersey shore). We put all kinds of delightful finds in there: magazines, home baked cookies, hand made English crackers, etc... These are fine bundles which delight the senses.

I got to thinking how excited I will be when K and I e-v-e-n-t-u-a-l-l-y receive our very special bundle here at Chez Fitz. Our little bundle baby. (insert squealing with delight sound here)

It is a long way off, as we are still in the agency-research mode, and we are not yet "home steady ready" which is adoption speak for cleared for take off.

Plus, K and I are deep in prayer asking for the Lord's leading.

K is perfectly fine waiting...I am SO NOT.

It's the hurry up and wait game! Some people really know how to keep busy while they wait. (or is that "get busy"?)

Until we get there, I have decided to affectionately call the little one "Bundle" or for short "Bun".

I am sure that this will morph into so many additional names, such as Bunny, because we are just like that here in this house. We have a laundry list of pet names for each other, and the critters that reside with us.

Bundle.

It brings to mind brown paper packages tied up with string. And those are, well, you know what those are!!

Labeling feeds nesting obsession

Thank you to Tricia and Ruth on facebook, and everyone who told me about their labelers.  (spell check does not accept labelers, is that not a word? well, now it is!)

We ended up with the p-touch pt2030 by brother which makes up to the 18mm sized labels. I like that it looks like a little typewriter.

Both the dymos and brothers sounded really nice, and when we got to the store, this hot little number was on sale, so IT WON!

When you are saving up for a 30,000 dollar adoption, you tend to really consider things like sales...big time.

Now, this awesome little labeler exists to feed my nesting frenzy.

I am labeling all the totes in the basement and attic, and it is so easy, and so cool. :)

I love that I can make different borders, and font sizes.

This one uses the laminated tape, so the print does not rub off.

Keep bringing on the baby nesting...I have label maker in hand, and I am so totally ready.

Psalm 61:1-2

Hear my cry, O God, attend to my prayer.

From the end of the Earth I will cry to You,

When my heart is overwhelmed,

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Amen.
