A big step!

Our Home Study is approved!!! It will now be sent to immigration along with our I-800A application. About 4 weeks after this is officially submitted, we will need to go get fingerprinted in Atlanta, and then we will wait approximately 2 months more for final Immigration Approval. During this time we will be working on putting together all of the documents for the Dossier. The Immigration Approval will be a part of the Dossier so we will send it as soon as we receive the approval by mail.

Also, we have raised over $1850 toward our adoption so far through t-shirt sales and donations!!!! Thank you, thank you!!!! We are excited and so grateful for your generosity.

We will place one more t-shirt order next week. We will order some extras then but this will most likely be our last order as we have to have a minimum per order. So if you still want to order a shirt, let us know this week!!! After that if you would like one, just check to see if we still have your size. We have a few baby sizes left (up to 4T) but won't be placing more orders for those so just check to see if we have the size you need!

Now that our Home Study is approved, we can start applying for grants. Please pray that we are approved so that the total amount is less daunting! :) We know God will provide what we need.

I am starting to get anxious to see that little face. We think she may be born at this point so that makes me wish we knew who she was and wish that she was with us. Carter and Myah are at such fun little ages; I can't wait to see those three little boogers running around together next year and can't wait for her to learn that she is a part of a family who already loves her.
