I haven't given an update in a few months because nothing has happened. We met with Shore Adoption on March 4th and were put "on hold" to begin the home study process because they are in the process of hiring a new case worker for the agency. Shore is a very small agency, which is one of the "pros" for us originally, because we felt that made it more personal. We also had good reviews from one of DH's co-workers who had gone through the agency to adopt his daughter.
I contact the agency at the beginning of each month and there is no progress so far. We don't want to wait forever for this agency to even start the home study process, but adoption is extremely expensive, so we don't want to dump a bunch of money in to another agency without feeling 100% comfortable. We are now researching other agencies. We were even thinking about international, but I think we are more comfortable with domestic.
Our next step is to set up informational meetings with other agencies and decide on an agency to take us through this journey.
