A little bit of progress...

So it looks like our home study is complete. However, we don't have all of the paperwork for the new babies finished so we will have to wait until we receive all of that to send it off. Basically we are waiting for birth certificates to arrive in the mail. I really don't have any idea how long it will take to receive them. Maybe a month? Hopefully less.

Once everything is sent off, we wait for CIS approval and then we get fingerprinted. Please be praying that our living situation doesn't hold up the approval process. I guess we are now hoping that we will get on the wait list sometime in March.

I will let you know when we make any more progress. Thanks for seeing us through all of this.

Guess Who??



No News

Hey everybody,

I have absolutely nothing to update you on. Our homestudy was conducted 7 weeks ago and it still hasn't been fully written up. We can't move on at all until it is completed.

Needless to say, we are extremely disappointed. We are most likely looking at March or April now for getting on the wait list. This is will not affect the age she will be when she comes home, but it means that we will probably not be traveling to Ethiopia before December.

Wish I had something more exciting to share. We will write again as soon as some progress is made.

Thanks for all of your prayers!
