Post Placement visit

We had our first post placement visit with our social worker today. As I've read on other people's blogs, it was quite relaxed. We talked about the dog, about CC and O. and about little Henry. She was of course enraptured by his adorableness. We shared the story and talked about his habits a little. She asked if it seemed real.

It's starting to seem more real.

We showed her the room and discussed new mom groups and if there was an adoptive mom/adopted kid group. I know there are a ton of the former, but I'd really like to find the latter. I'm sure I'll organize something. I just know being friends with other adoptees has been invaluable to my niece.

It went well. Two more in the next 6 months.

Henry is getting a little more fussy. He's hungry -- gotta run.

I like it when he does this.

Glad to hear your first post-placement visit went well! Hey, I sometimes wake up from a really deep sleep and find myself in that same position - must be good for the soul. :)

I found meetup.com helpful in finding regular groups, found the adoption one though my agency, sort of . . .
