It's Arrived....

So the big "portfolio" has arrived into the right hands. Well I'm at least hoping it's in the right hands, according to my update this morning it was "Delivered". So now we sit patiently for July 15th and hope for submission and a quick travel date. I hope it's before this little guy is ready to go off to college. LOL

Bad news today

So just when we thought things were soon coming to an end, our dossier is en route. We just found out that the SDA closes from 7/1-7/14 so now our submission probably won't happen for another month. This is CRAZY!!! And we are not sure where our documents are because when I check on USPS for our daily updates, it hasn't been updated since Wednesday, 6/23 stating that they"attempted delivery", so has it been finally delivered or is it sitting in "purgatory". I can't stand this waiting, we get soooo close and then a road block. We are being so patient, but it's hard. Loving a boy we haven't even met yet, it aches.

It's Landed

So the dossier has landed in Ukraine as of 8:30am this morning (our time). Hasn't gotten to our facilitator yet but it's finally gotten off the plane!!!
Wahoo....now if only it will get translated quickly by our wonderful facilitator group there and get submitted and accepted in the next week or so.
Can't wait! The anticipation is killing us! We're coming Vanya... just hold on :)

International Waters

So as of yesterday, our dossier has left New York and is currently over International Waters.
Time line:
Sent dossier out of Orlando
Friday, Left Miami International
Saturday, Left New York
Stating Enroute to Destination

These very important documents have definitely been getting quite a trip!!

2cm dilated and contractions are starting

Well as of this morning our dossier is over international waters. It is to be in the Ukraine Tuesday the latest.
The many many obstacles Tom and I have faced in the last year are now coming to an end and our first born is coming home soon.
Please keep us in our prayers that in the next week or two, there are no complications and our "delivery" date will be set. And the long overdue pregnancy will present with a beautiful little boy!! Is it's a BOY!!!

Dossier next week...

So we got the remaining papers from State of Florida that required apostille and of course I'm missing 2 of them. They were sent later, so I am hoping for tomorrow's mail and then the Beast of Papers can be off to Ukraine!!!! A day I thought that would never be coming. Bryce....we are coming sweet boy, it will be soon enough that you can now have a mommy and daddy that are going to love you unconditionally and be so proud of you every day!
