Well... today was the day. We met with the birth parents. They are a couple who is still together but I'm not going to divulge much more info than that. E (birth mom) and S (birth dad) were amazing. They are fun, sweet, caring and wonderful people. We clicked right away after meeting them and we had a great meal talking about video games, movies, books and everything else. It was easy going and just so great to get to know them better. Our social worker was there and she helped us cover some of the slightly tougher topics like naming of the baby, what the birth mom wants as far as us at the hospital and some other harder things. But all in all it was great!
At the end of the meal, as we walked out with Stephanie, we asked her "how did we do?" She said "I barely had to talk, that means it went VERY well". EEEK!
Now, we wait.
Due date is only 4 days away. We don't know much about the birth mom's situation (if she's dilated, having contractions etc.) so we just have to sit and wait. This is going to be hard!
