WELL WE MET WITH OUR CASE WORKER THE OTHER DAY AND WENT OVER ALL WE HAVE DONE AND HAVE TO DO. OUR HOME STUDY IS DONE AND IS BEING REVIEWED AS I WRITE. WE SHOULD HAVE ALL OUR PAPERWORK READY TO GO THROUGH IMMIGRATION WITHIN ABOUT 4-5 WEEKS. AFTER THAT WE SHOULD GET A REFERRAL AND PICTURE OF A BABY GIRL.
RIGHT NOW THE ADOPTION PROCESS IN GUATEMALA IS A LITTLE SKETCHY. IT'S A BUNCH OF POLITICAL B.S. BUT IT'S THERE IS GONNA BE A BIG DECISION TO MAKE COME SOON. IF THE PROCESS HASN'T BEEN AFFECTED BY THE TIME WE ACCEPT OUR CHILD THAN THINGS MAY GO SMOOTH. AT THIS TIME IT'S NOT A DEFINITE THING BUT WE ARE KEEPING OUR FINGERS CROSSED AND SAYING OUR PRAYERS. AFTER WE ACCEPT THE REFERRAL THAN ITS ANOTHER WAITING PROCESS AS ALL THE LAWYERS DO ALL THE PAPERWORK AND GET ALL THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS IN ORDER. AFTER WE ACCEPT THE REFERRAL, WE CAN GO TO GUATEMALA AND VISIT WITH THE BABY FOR AS LONG AS WE LIKE. WE CAN BRING HER CLOTHES AND STUFF AND START TO BOND WITH HER FOR A LITTLE BIT. THAN IT CAN BE ANOTHER 3-5 MONTHS BEFORE WE CAN GO BACK AND GET HER. IT'S JUST A LONG, CRAZY PROCESS THAT WILL BE WELL WORTH IT IN THE END. IN THE MEANTIME WE HAD GINA COME DOWN LAST FRIDAY AND DO A BEAUTIFUL MURAL OF CINDERELLAS CARRIAGE IN THE BABY'S ROOM. IT CAME OUT SO NICE AND GOT US EVEN MORE EXCITED. THE ROOM IS PRETTY MUCH ALL SET AND NOW WE JUST HAVE TO SETTLE ON A NAME.
THAT WILL PROBABLY GO TO THE LAST MONTH BEING WE BOTH CAN'T AGREE.
WELL THATS ALL FOR NOW. HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GREAT EASTER AND SOON THEY'LL BE A LITTLE EASTER BONNET TO GET. KEEP EVERYONE INFORMED AS THE INFO COMES IN..LOVE TOMMY & TONI
