Getting Prepared

In our unending quest to become the most prepared parents ever who aren't actually yet parents, Jen and I took a Infant and Child Safety and CPR class yesterday at Mass General Hospital. We went with our friends Kris and Biren who are pregnant with twins. The class was good, we still have a lot of work to do around our house to get it baby safe but we will probably wait until we get our referral until we start installing safety devices. Between the carseats and all of the safety devices you need to buy these days you have to wonder how any of us survived childhood. The CPR training is just one of those things that is so important to know but you hope you never have to use. We also hit 20 months since our Log In Date last week. This is the first month that we think we might be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. At this point we think there is a pretty good chance we could be getting our referral in early January 2008. Although this could all change if they don't get into December with the next batch but we think that they will. We anticipate being pretty busy the next couple months, I have some project deadlines coming up at work that should keep me pretty busy and Jen is back to school so we hope that the next few months fly by and get us to our referral and then to China early next year.
