One month till "Gotcha!"

One month people!!  If all goes as planned, one month from tonight will be my first night sleeping next to a very adorable Chinese boy!  Really???  As I have said before, it's kind of like being 9 months pregnant and labor will begin any minute!  Exciting and scary all at the same time!!  AHHHH!!!


I cannot believe we are at the point in this process that we are closing down our fundraisers.  Most require 2-3 weeks notice in order to send you the money you have earned, so I have begun that process with AdoptTogether, Adoption Bug T-Shirts, and CoupAide.  You will notice those are no longer on our blog anymore.  If you were considering a purchase from Adoption Bug or CoupAide, let me know and I can direct you to a family still using these companies to help their adoption fund.  I also received a check from my cousin's Ava Anderson party that we did in January.  Although none of these fundraisers produced a huge sum in and of themselves, all together they have been very helpful.  Thank you SOO much to those who have helped with these efforts!

Two things that are still up and running are the Amazon link and the Olive Tree Promise store.  Olive Tree Promise does have some fantastic gift ideas if you are buying for that person who has everything! 


Such as incredible artwork.... 

Beads made in Uganda from recycled magazines...no two are alike!  Bracelets, earrings and necklaces!

Personalized burp cloths and other baby items!  

No, they don't all say Saylor :-)

Personalized kids' shirts with a letter or number on the front.  Many designs available.  The number ones are great for birthdays!  

Pieces of art made in Haiti that benefit not only our family, but also the families who live in Haiti!

Purchase baby formula as a donation for children who lack adequate nutrition.

And great t-shirts that benefit people far and near!

Of course this one is my personal favorite, since my BFF actually adopted Superman!

No kidding...see??

Seriously, thank you so much for your support of our adoption.  God has used many of you to help provide the funds that we need up to this point.  If you would still like to help with a donation, just click on the "Chip In" that I put back up over on your right!  Also, we are still waiting to hear about 2 grants this week.  Please pray that we have the patience and faith to trust that God is never late!
