Fingerprinting appointment!


These are the only pics we have of Makayla, and probably the only ones we will get! They are so funny, they look like she has so many layers on that she can't move her arms! And from what I've seen from friends that have adopted they bundle them up good, even in 70 degree weather!Usually the only way people get updated pics is if another family is traveling to the same orphanage before you. Well no one has been to our orphanage yet, we will be the first! There is one other family in the process of adopting at our orphanage, but they are still doing their home study so we'll be traveling first!
I got fantastic news today. We got our appointment date to get our fingerprints done for our I600a form. For those of you that don't know, that is huge! Sometimes the government wants all this extra paperwork, and I've heard of some major headaches people have had. This form has kept me on edge more than any paperwork so far! I think we may hit our date and travel the first of July like I was hoping!
Oh I've never been so excited, my hubby was laughing because I was doing a little jig. He said he's never seen me more excited for something in my life!!
