I found a dress for the holiday party! I shopped online, which I hardly ever do for clothing and I think I found something perfect!! I love Ann Taylor but the dresses in the store were only so-so. Plus I'm always shopping the sales rack because I think some of their clothes are a little over priced. All of the dresses I've ever bought from there have been less than $50 (a steal when the dresses run $100-$200 dollars) because I wait for the deals. I got this dress, including shipping and tax, for $60!! I hope it looks as good on me as it does on the model in the picture! I also hope it doesn't look too much like a bridesmaid dress when I actually see it in person...otherwise I might have to go shopping last minute because the dress won't arrive until Dec 1 and the party is Dec 12.
We have the social worker coming tomorrow. This is our third visit since Charlotte has come home. All the visits are very short and casual. This time it's not our normal social worker because she's on vacation. We have also been assigned an adoption worker in Colorado, but so far we haven't heard anything regarding our application or requirements for the home study. Doing everything across state lines makes it a little more complicated and slows everything down. Not to mention the added confusion of the holidays. It's frustrating for us.
My dad sent us a video of himself for the kids awhile back. We show it to the kids quite often and they LOVE it. Cooper gets this big smile and does his crazy dancing arms and legs. Charlotte sort of looks around, like who's saying my name, and then slowly smiles when she sees the computer screen. It's adorable!
My cousin Monica (our mothers are sisters) sent me this funny comparison of a card she found and Cooper's 'eat you' face (sorry, her blog is set to private...I know some of you used to read her blog...Gunner is a cutey and her family is doing well). I thought it was hysterical and did a Totally Looks Like Lolz on him:
