My wife and I also adopted through a state Family Services division. You probably don't want to hear how we got lucky and got a baby within a few months... But we did come pretty close to taking a sibling group of 5. The case worker basically decided she didn't like/want us and that was that. We were pretty upset at the time, but things often have a way of working out. The system is massively screwed up, but I hope you can be patient. Being a parent is worth all the waiting and heartache x 1000!

It's 4am and I'm reading hacker news in the play yard. I guess without kids it's be 4am and I'd be debugging something. In only one of these scenarios am I not covered in vomit. I'm hoping for one of those "what'll you remember later" moments, but right now I'm remembering a particularly nice day with gdb and otool -tv. Darling little otool!

  The puking phase is only a couple of weeks, really. I think you exaggerate...

    Kid is ten months old with a stomache flu, so not really. Although it is telling that you inferred that the vomit was associated with the kid, and not the debugging session :-)

      Ok didn't think about that... Hope kid gets well soon!
