Progress update

We have been working the past couple of weeks on documents needed for the Eastern Europe officials.  Our SW was so gracious and kind to offer our update for free (so we saved money there)!!  It took four attempts to get the home study paperwork exactly the way it needs to be for our Team in Eastern Europe and she mailed it yesterday, so we should have it in a few days.

Today we go for fingerprinting for our FBI background checks. We don't live in a State that offers them via electronically, but I found a company that can process our fingerprint cards within 10 days, which is much better than sending directly to FBI and waiting 7-9 weeks.  Once we get them back I found another company in Washington DC who will take them over to the Secretary of State's office and have them authenticated.  I am guesstimating this whole process to be about a 3 week turn around.  Which is the only thing that will take this long.

I have printed all the forms that we need to sign in front of a notary and our notary is coming to our house tomorrow morning so we can finish that part.

I have a call into our doctor to see if he will sign an updated health form without making us redo all the physicals and blood work, since it has been less than a year when we did it last.

So Monday I am sending a package to my niece with the majority of the papers we need to have apostilled.  She will hand carry them and return them to us.  Hurray we will be about 90% finished at this point.

Our goal is to have our completed dossier by the middle of January, so we can be submitted by the end of January.  This will put us travelling anywhere from the middle of March to the end of March.  Means we could have our precious angel home by the end of May.

Please continue to pray that our journey continues stress free and smoothly and we thank you for your support!
