Update.

We had our first "consultation" with the embryo donation coordinator last Thursday. Our next one is this coming Thursday. We understand this is a process, but honestly, we've done SO much research on embryo adoption, we feel we could be presenting a course on it. That said, it was good for Tygh to hear all the info from the coordinator herself. And, it was really neat to hear him say that he was on board with this process and ready to move full steam ahead. He actually said that the doors have been opening and so there is no reason to not continue. Phew! Thank you, Lord, that it seems I have not dragged my husband into this. He has appeared to come to this decision on his own, in his own time and on his own terms. Love my beau Tygh.

We learned that we have a new 10 hour training requirement to satisfy our homestudy. We suggested we take it by video. They responded that 2 hours of video = 1 hour of in-person training. Are you kidding? Sigh. Ok. We'll do it.

Our homestudy is scheduled for next Wednesday the 24th.

Hopefully we can start the matching process (which can take many months, apparently) in the next few weeks. We are waiting to receive our final application paperwork to start that process.

Yup. It's a process.
