And this is just a sample, people. The social worker told us that it would be kind of fun to do because you will learn a lot about your spouse. Should be interesting just to get Charlie to sit down and answer his half.
But, YIPPEE, it means another step is behind us and we are continuing to move forward!
Oh, and where does each person in your house sleep? I'm dying to know...

I am so happy to hear that things are moving along so smoothly with the adoption process. You and your husband will continue to be in my prayers!
Congrats!!!
Did they also encourage you to have the house childproofed? IE outlets, doors, chemicals? We had to show that our home was ready for a child at any given moment. Our Social worker talked to us as a couple and then seperate too. Bird is a talker so he was with her for what seemed an eternity. Can't wait to find out what you all learn if anything about each other. Bird and I sleep in our room with 3 dogs. Yaya sleeps in her room though she continually tries to worm her way back into our bed. Fun times I tell ya. How many birth parents get to enjoy such soul searching and fun questions? I think we're actually lucky to have so many questions asked and thoughts put on paper. Fun to look back at answers for us even now after 2 years with our adopted daughter.
Congratulations Sissy! I'm so happy you guys are moving through this process. The questionnaire seems taxing but also a learning process for you guys (kinda like premarital stuff). Anyways, we will keep praying that the process keeps moving along smoothly for you guys. You will be great parents!
Great news, Sissy!
I'm so happy for you guys.
That questionaire seems daunting, but you'll muddle through.
I so remember this...and I was amazed at what they wanted to know. Seems to me that every person growing their family should answer these. :o) By the way - where we sleep now is VERY different from where we slept before our kids came home. Livi has extreme sleep anxiety and night terrors so she sleeps with me, while Jason either sleeps in Livi's bed in the room with Ayla, or I sleep with Livi in her bed in with Ayla. It changes often. :o) I look forward to once again sleeping in the same bed with my sweet husband.
