...But I did buy diapers today! :) It was fun to be able to buy diapers again. We haven't heard anything yet, and I'm not really expecting to get a call this week. I'm hoping for next week or at the latest the week after. It's very surreal to think that in just a few weeks we'll have a child that will be ours living here. It's just crazy. But we're very excited and can't wait to meet her!
We had our last day on campus on Friday. For the remainder of the semester we'll work on raising support along with taking a week off to go to Korea and another week to settle in with Liv. We haven't had to leave campus to work on support since we initially reported 3 1/2 years ago, but I just feel like the Lord's timing is really neat in this. He's been so faithful to provide for us, and I know He'll continue to do so. And His timing in this feels like such a gift to be able to work at home together where Aaron will be able to interact more with Liv than if he was going back to campus for the end of the semester. So it was hard to know that we won't be having all the interactions with students that we had been having and connecting with them on a regular basis. I just continue to love the women God has given me to work with. But it's so exciting to get ready for this little woman God has given me.
I also ordered a baby carrier that's patterned after the Korean style baby carriers. That's what Liv will be used to, and I'm hoping it'll feel familiar and comfortable. It's sort of vest-like and their legs more wrap around the sides than down like in a Baby Bjorn. If you're curious as to what this looks like here's the link: www.hosausa.com. And I'm reading What to Expect the Fist Year. I started from month 6 and am on month 8 - Liv turned 9 months so I'm almost caught up! There's such good information in there, some that's familiar and some that's new. So we're getting there!

It was good to talk to you tonight; I'm so excited! By the way, I'm glad you are reading that book - it's a must - definitely a staple in our house (and I bought the one for the toddler years, too.). Also, when you said it was your last day on campus, I just thought that was for spring break! That's great - you guys are very blessed to have that time to work together and bond as a family.
Love you!

I like that carrier! Looks way easier than the one I use. That book is great too. Glad you are getting "maternity time" to get ready for your sweetie! :) --alli
