Maybe we were too optimistic. Too arrogant. Too hopeful.
We've had less activity on our website. The decrease in interest was apparent with our October stats - we only had 4 letters go out. :( We definitely saw less repeat visitors too.
We put together packets of our birth mother letter, IAC pamphlet, and cover letter to OB/GYN offices in NC, SC, and GA. I'll be sending those out soon.
On a more positive note, things have happened for the better. SML accepted a job offer on the unit she really wanted! Come August 2013 she'll have graduated RN school, passed the boards, and will be starting her nursing career.
I have had the opportunity to rack up more PDO/PTO time at work. Starting Jan. 1, 2013, coworkers can donate their PDO/PTO time again, which is fantastic news since I only have ~7 weeks saved. It's amazing how you can save for over a year and still not have enough paid time off. So, hopefully when future baby comes (probably in 2013), coworkers can gift me PDO/PTO time instead of baby gifts :)
Also, I will receive another bonus next month!
SML and I have had a great time just spending time together. We finally purchased a game we've wanted and have played it over and over for the last few nights.
It's called Ticket to Ride. A fun strategy game that we played last year with my dad & step mom. We need to get the expansion set to add more routes and ways to play! We're obsessed. SML is especially loving it since she's kicking my butt.
