Deadlines

June 15, 2005
This week has been so busy! We're really feeling the pressure of deadlines, as we are getting ready for our trip to Seattle this weekend for our Infant Adoption Orientation. We need to turn in our paperwork at the orientation. I spent pretty much all of yesterday typing up the answers to our self-study questionnaires. (Thankfully it was a slower day at work!) We filled up 3 legal pads of paper with answers, and I needed to type them all up! Calvin finished proofing them for typos after midnight.

I also spent a large part of the evening getting laundry done, and food prepared for this weekend, since we will be living out of a hotel for Friday-Saturday. Then I raced around this morning finishing up the grocery list and rounding up coupons for grocery shopping this afternoon.

Yesterday, amidst the craziness, we decided to take a break for lunch and do something fun. We wandered around Gottschalk's department store, since they had just opened, and Calvin had never been there. They had a 50% off sale on baby clothes, so he bought a cute little white sleeper with silver stars on it. (It'll be awhile before we can use it, but Calvin knows how much I love starry stuff, and couldn't pass it up!)

We're still compiling all the official paperwork. A couple weeks ago, we placed an order for an official copy of Calvin's birth certificate, so we are waiting for that to arrive. Hopefully, it gets here soon!

Yesterday, Calvin met our insurance agent in Salem to begin a life insurance policy. The adoption agency requested that we have a policy in place, so we are working on it! We are now in the process of scheduling his required medical exam for the insurance, and waiting for the paperwork to be processed.
