Happy News!!!

Our I800 was finally approved!!!!

If you are not or have not adopted, you have no idea what I am talking about and that is okay. What it really means is that we are down to our last few steps.

The details are really boring but it involves delivering approval letters to/from the US Embassy and the Chinese adoption officials in China.

The average time to obtain travel approval from this point is around 6 weeks. Our agency says we can travel around 2 weeks later.

Of course, anything can happen. Some people wait much longer for travel approval, while others receive it much quicker than average.

While we wait for TA (travel approval), we'll get through Thanksgiving and Christmas, drive to PA and back to visit my mom, Kayla and my niece and to deliver Kayla's car to her. We'll need to do all of the standard prepping for bringing home a newly adopted 4 year old.

My head is spinning a little. We have so much to do!!!
