CA and travel dates!!!

Well, we finally got our CA (consulate appointment) and will be traveling to pick up Hunter from Jan 21-Feb 6. Gotcha day will be Jan 25. We are so excited. A little bit stressed since we only got a week's notice to get our travel done and get packed and go, but we are doing it! We have all our tickets bought and travel arrangements made. They were a little more expensive, but we are glad that we did not have to wait until after Chinese New Year. Hopefully, we will get everything done and be in China soon! I have heard it is hard to get on blogger in China so I have signed up for a Shutterfly account to record our pictures and time in China. Here it is:

We got TA and USCIS approval!

We recieved TA (Travel Approval) yesterday 1/4/2010 and also recieved our updated I-171H (approval from US immigration)! We are told we should be leaving on January 21st. Gotcha day will be the 25th! We are so excited! We have been working on his nursery and trying to get everything we need together so we can go. Just a little over 2 weeks til we leave. I cannot believe it. It has been 3 yrs since we first put in our application to our agency. Our dream is coming true.

TA is on it's way!

I was told by my agency last week that TA was on it's way. It has been granted by China and we should receive the official paperwork this week! That is very good, but we are STILL waiting on USCIS to get us our new I-171H that approves us for special needs instead of a "healthy" child. Please pray that USCIS gets us our approval so we can get plane tickets and get the heck on out of here. I am ready to meet my son.
