Are we ever going to get a baby?

Waiting on our baby is hard. For one, I am very impatient when I set my mind to something. I am keeping busy doing normal stuff, with 3 kids that isn't hard. But everyday I think, what age will our baby be? What do we need? When will we see him/her? We are planning on fostering and adopting. My hope is that we get a baby or toddler that is legally free and we are able to adopt quickly, and not draw it out for 2 years. I know that I am asking for a perfect scenario, but why not? I can hope, that is all you have sometimes. We still have not had our homestudy. My part still includes: Fire inspection, purchase crib and toddler bed, and medical clearance for the boys. I am working on these, so I should be done by next week. I will put off purchasing a crib and toddler bed until after our homestudy. I am dying to shop for the babies we will have, but I'm trying to wait until the last minute. I guess that is my way of trying to not be disappointed. In all we have been working on this for 3.5 months. That isn't bad in the world of adoption. I hope to have a baby by December. My timeline keeps getting longer, which is typical (with adoption or foster care). I am saying December, but my heart is hoping for November. So much for October...
