Finally.....

The cut-off was finally announced....Feb. 17th. Only two days. Why it took so long to match only two days? I have no idea, but it is what it is.

What's this mean for us? There are 25 days in front of us. If the CCAA continues to refer only 2 days per month, we're looking at December 2009 for our referral. I need to keep reminding myself this probably will not happen because it's too painful to think about. Better luck next month.

Finally, but confused....

Referrals started arriving this week (FINALLY!), but no one is clear on the cut-off date. It is either Feb. 17th (only 2 days) or Feb. 19th (only 4 days). My fingers are crossed for the 19th, but I'm expecting it to be the 17th. I'll update when we know more.

Feb. 16th

It appears some family with LID's of 2/16/08 received their referral yesterday! This is out of the blue and it's not clear what this means yet. Hopefully all of 2/16/08 [surprisingly] received their referrals and that's another day out of our way. :)

6 days....inching closer

Referrals started arriving today, and even though the cut-off date hasn't been made official, it looks like Feb. 15th will be it. 6 days...not great, but we'll definitely take it.

What does this mean for us? There are 27 days ahead of us. If the CCAA continues to refer 6 days per month, we're looking at March 2009 for our referral.

P.S. September 12th marked our 3-year anniversary of mailing our application to our adoption agency. I look good for 36-months pregnant!

It's official....

Feb. 9th is the cut-off! (Funny how your perspective changes....I'm excited over 9 days of referrals.) Here's what all this means for us: There are 33 dates ahead of ours. If the CCAA continues to refer 9 days per month, we're looking at January 2009 for our referral. Looks like we've hit the stage where we need to start talking about child care arrangements.

Fingers Crossed

The rumors have started and they're stating Feb. 9th as the cut-off. Boy I hope this is true! That will mean only 33 days in front of us. That also means IF the CCAA continues to refer 9 days a month, we're looking at January 2009 for our referral! I have to calm down; I can't be this excited at the rumor stage...
