Well it's virtually guaranteed now that we'll be receiving our referral for Baby S next month!!! CCAA has matched families with LIDs through August 9th, so with us being August 10th, we're next!! Holy moly, next month Eammon and I will be parents!!Am I disappointed about missing the cut-off this month? Yes and no. With the current pattern of matches I honestly didn't expect them to match to August 9th, but now, knowing that we are next, OMG!!!
Just in case you missed it, we are getting our referral in October, we are next!!!!

You. Are. Next. !!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWe missed by a day too, and even though that first week stunk, the rest of the month was almost euphoric. It was just so cool to finally have a "due date."
Woooo Hooooo!!! We missed by 2 days when we missed...the first couple days SUCK (especially when the actual referrals roll in), but then it's purely wonderful!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Thrilled for you. Our LID is Aug31...I wonder what that means?
ReplyDeleteYay Lisa!!! My heart sunk a little bit for you when I realized you missed the cutoff by a day. But YOU'RE NEXT!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a good attitude to have!
ReplyDeleteSo excited that a referral date is in sight for you! It's a bit off but you can see it which is so exciting! My heart fell last night when I realized you missed it by only 1 day. Felt just like that when the same thing happened to M3. We know that your daughter will be the perfect little one for you so she's just not quite ready yet. BUT....you could be matched ANY DAY NOW and be at the front of the pack next month. So exciting that someone at CCAA could be matching you with your dd any day now!
ReplyDeletePraying for you!
I am sooo excited that you are next. It's about time!!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to celebrating with you!
ReplyDeleteGreat attitude to have and it is so exciting that you are next for sure, for sure!
ReplyDeleteKeep smilin!
Yay, I am so happy you will be next! You have such a great attitude!
ReplyDeleteJulie
Are you ready to spend the next month on pins and needles? How terribly exciting for you!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteyou really are nex!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see Baby S!
Woo hoo! It's great to KNOW you are next! Enjoy the anticipation of this next month. There is something special about that feeling, make it fun! You're almost there!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I just emailed you about our website.
I was so sad for you when I saw the cutoff date- but next is very cool- especially when you can bet the farm on it!!!! congrats- and can't wait for October referrals!!!! Woohoo- NEXT!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you. Yeah, it'd be better if the cutoff was the 10th. but the next best thing is knowing you're "in the bag", so to speak.
ReplyDeleteLisa, I was worried about you. When I heard the cut off date was Aug. 9th, you were the FIRST person I thought of.
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you for having the outlook you do. You are one tough mama!!!
With that said....
YOU.ARE.NEXT!!!!!!!
I'm so jealous!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I can't wait.
Let's paaaahttaayyyy!!!!
Yaaaay!!! Knowing for sure you are up next gives you a great sense of peace & then the nervous jitters about making sure everything is done. When we missed by a day in March it was rough, but a week later I was just smiling knowing we were so close to seeing Katie's face.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy this month of final anticipation!
I forgot you were away - I was getting scared that you hadn't posted! Duh!!
ReplyDeleteYAY - you are NEXT - whoo-hoooo!!! Prepare, read, shop - do all the fun things you can to get ready!!!

ReplyDeleteYay!!! I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see Baby Shanahan!

ReplyDeleteDawn, Jacob and Lily.
PS Welcome back
Congratulations on being NEXT!!! WHOO-HOO!
ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo!!! That is great! qrgwhi
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I thrilled you are next! Oh bummer not this month but it is coming before you know it.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your month of no wonderfing...finally.
The good thing about it, is your group will probably be one of the first ones to travel. That is what happened to us.
ReplyDeleteLisa, oh my gosh, YOU'RE NEXT! This is SO cool! When we were in Utah it was Mary-Mia that was next, but now it's your turn!! What a great feeling to know for sure that you'll be up in the next batch. I can't wait to get that first look at baby M_ _ _ _!
ReplyDeleteWhile in Philly, one of the girls had her laptop, so we were checking the RQ and saw that referrals were sent out on Friday and I immediately thought of you!
So sorry to hear you missed the cut off. That happened to us too, but I would never trade our referral for anything in this world. Shayna was always meant to be ours and Baby S is just waiting for you. Have fun this month, it will crawl and fly by all at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWow Lisa...You are next lady!! Doing the happy dance for you here in South Florida.
ReplyDeleteAHHHH. AWESOME....doin' the snoopy dance for you! Can't wait to see the baby's face!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on being next! How very exciting! I'll be looking out for that referral!

Congrats Lisa and Eammon! Can't wait to see your little "It's a Girl" announcement.
