Delays

It appears we won't be traveling in June as we were hoping.
We are hoping and praying the US and Russia wrap things up with the new treaty soon.

We learned today that Kaz has stopped taking new dossiers effective 5-15. They are in the process of signing the Hague so there is no ETA on when they will take new dossiers again.
It's so sad, I feel bad for everyone in the process.
We just got our USCIS approval last week, so if we were still with Kaz we would have been impacted and on hold.

We just pray we still can travel soon to meet our little guy...

This really has been a roller coaster. I read other blogs and yahoo groups and know other people have been through worse things. So trying to be patient and have hope it will all work out in the end. Easier said than done on some days though!!!

We got USCIS approval today!!!

We finally got our USCIS approval today!!!
It took over 5 months, we submitted our completed homestudy on Dec 1st. We paid and sent all of our other documents even earlier, in Oct 09.

We are just so happy we got it and it all looks correct!
Well except for we were just approved for 1 child. We were told to ask for 2, but they just granted one.
We only plan on 1 so ultimately not an issue.

So excited to have this, so far getting this approval has been the hardest and longest part of the paperwork.

Yeah!
