We just received our I-171, so our paperwork is complete. Our agency will send it the the Vietnamese Consolate then it is onto Viet Nam. Our official waiting has begun. Our agency has started partnering with a second orphanage and is working on a third, so hopefully the wait time shortens.
This would be good news because Jake's deployment to Iraq has been pushed back to May 2008, so it could be possible to receive our referral and travel before he leaves. That is our hope anyway.
Work has been crazy for me the last month or so and I am really hoping the summer brings some down time. I'm sure Jake would like that too since I have been so tired and cranky.
I have started looking for furniture for the baby's room to fix up, so if anyone has an old dresser, the shorter, wider kind that they want to get rid of let me know.

good luck with the adoption process. it is emotional and challenging. but, i cannot describe the feeling when you see your daughter for the first time.
it is simply...amazing!

I'm trying to stay as busy as possible, but I think I've been too good at that and worn myself out.
