Four days down.

Six more to go until the day we hope to meet our funding goal of nearly $13,000 for the home study completion and out-of-state agency fee.

Today we got a chance to attend a consignment sale and it put even more reality to this adoption. Since our babe will be born in November, we had to grab way cute newborn outfits for Thanksgiving and Christmas 🙂

Today we also saw more family, friends, and strangers sharing our puzzle fundraiser via email and social media sites. We even got a shout-out from an amazing blogger over at Catholic All Year. Thank you to everyone putting in effort to helping us adopt!

We had more puzzle pieces purchased on Saturday and the progress is below!

On day four we sold a total of 71 puzzle pieces, totaling $1,775!! 

Total overall stats thus far are as follows:

• 357 pieces sold

• $8,923 raised

• 68% of current goal of $13,000

• 36% of original goal of $25,000

Here’s a picture of the puzzle progress:

SO MUCH PROGRESS TODAY! 🙂 I am loving seeing this come together.

Again we are beyond humbled and grateful. In the beginning we were nervous, thinking we shouldn’t ask for any financial assistance in this endeavor. God made it clear though he wanted us to make ourselves vulnerable in this way and to ask others to join us. Thank you for those who are along for the ride and are cheering us on.

Thank you again for all who are joining Team Baby Teixeira! 

Keep coming back each day for new progress updates!
