O-U-T

We just got word that Rosa was approved from PGN!!! Now we wait for her birth certificate and then our embassy appointment!

Previo

We received an email from our attorney today that said that Rosa's case got a previo, which means it was "kicked out" due to some legal terminology that needs to be corrected. This is a bit of a let down as we thought her case would be through PGN by the time I got down there. I guess it really isn't too bad though since Fernanda is just now getting into PGN. The attorney also said that she Hopes to have both adoptions completed in approximately 3 months.

Slight Change of Plans...

Well we couldn't get my lodging worked out so I came home with Bill yesterday. I have booked my return flight for July 3rd. I was so sad to leave my girls, but I know I will be back soon! For the next 2 weeks I will be working to get things in order, the girl's room ready and tie up loose ends with my job, etc.
Thanks for all your prayers, we had a wonderful visit with our girls. It was very eye opening. It is going to be a BIG transition into mommyhood. Well, got to get the laundry done.

We made it!

We made it here yesterday around noon. First we picked Rosa up from her Foster mom's house and then to Amor del Nino to get Fernanda. They were both so good about going with us. Last night was a little rough, trying to get sleep schedules right, but maybe today will be better. We don't have internet in our room so maybe tomorrow we can post a few pics.

I'm moving!

Bill and I are leaving this week to go for another visit with our girls. We are so excited to see them again. This time, however, I will not be coming back with him...
I am moving to Antigua until our adoptions are complete. This is something we have talked about since we started this process, just waiting for the right time to go. And this is it! I will be living in a 4 BR house w/ 2 other adopting moms and another lady who is going to language school in Antigua.
I have such mixed emotions about this move. I am excited to be with my girls, but sad to be away from Bill, Max and all of our family and friends. As long as we can figure out how to set up the wireless, I should be able to post from there.
So that's what's going on with us. Please pray for me while I am there and for Bill as he holds down the fort back home!

No Show!

The BM did not show up for her interview yesterday so now the attorney will reschedule the interview and try to get in touch with the BM. This is very discouraging, but there is nothing we can do about it so we wait and we pray that she will cooperate so we can move to the next step.

Keep praying!
