I haven't posted in quite awhile, but for good reason. Tim and I have always know that we wanted to expand our family and have more children. Because we had such difficult time the first go round, we had to really explore our options and figure out what our priorities are. We came to the conclusion that we wanted to add to our family through the gift of adoption. We have been really emersed in the process and are super excited.
We are going through a fantastic agency and completed our Homestudy docs the middle of April. We were gearing up for a 8-18 month wait to welcome home our newest family member. We are so excited to say that just a few week later we had been selected by a brave mother. We met with her and have been matched, so we are expecting the new baby at the very end of September. We feel so grateful, that she is giving us this most precious gift.
We have a busy summer with Reese and preparing for a new baby, but couldn't be happier. I'll be posting much more regularly now (I hope). Were trying to decide if we should let people know the sex of the baby when we find out, or just keep it to ourselves. I guess we'll decide when the time comes (should be this month). We are also bringing up the baby to Reese, but I'm not sure how much a 2.5 year old absorbs.

It's a New Year
We've been super busy in the Jarrett household the last month or so and I haven't had much time to write. Right now I'm doing a cleanse/detox that has been passed down through my husbands family and it's little rough. The first week I thought I may go crazy, but it gradually gets a little easier.
Reese is still keeping us super busy and were hoping that sometime in the near future we may be able to add another little one to our family. It was a rough road getting pregnant the first time around and this time were looking at adopting as a great option. More to come once/if we start the process.
We had a really nice Christmas, but it's always hectic with all the traveling we do and our New Years Eve was very quiet and just the 3 of us.
