DAY 97 AND ITS HERE!!!!!!!!

We got a call this morning (I was on the Skype with Stacy) and it was LeighAnne telling us they got BOTH OF OUR LSC's TODAY!!!!! YYYYEAAAHHHH!! Looks like we will be bringing the girls home in February TOGETHER!! I can't wait. Feels like so much has to get done yet but actually very thankful that we are busy ---- time will fly!!

Package should arrive tomorrow morning - we will mail it back in afternoon and then it will be off to CCAA on Friday.

So thankful today...we're coming Bella!!

Day 96


Christmas was wonderful. We sent a package with a blanket, doll, letter, bracelet, candy and an art kit. Received a email that she got the package and was "happy, happliy" AND we also got 2 updated pictures!! What a present that was for us. I could deal with not getting the LSC much better with update pictures! We were planning on between 60-90 days and we are here! GW was closed Christmas Eve thru monday so we are praying that our LSC will be on waiting for them on Monday. That would make it day 97 :-) we're good with that!!

Ok, so now for Monday..... thinking around 11:00 we will get the call????

DAY 86

hmmm, yes I am counting now. Saw a LOA come in for a 9/3 log-in-date which means we are close ---- we are LID 9/23. Would like it for Christmas if I may ask :-) Sending a care package tomorrow so that she will get it for Christmas.

Day 75

We are day 75 waiting for our LSC (letter seeking confirmation) The average is still taking about 90 for people with LID after LOI. Soooo Stacys guess is December 11.... which is our girls day :-) I just hope it is soon. After that we will be waiting for TA (travel approval). We need to get it soon in order to get thing rolling if we ever expect to leave before Jan 11, or we will have to wait until after the Chinese New Year - which would be February travel. I'm ok with February travel but of course would love to leave December 26 :-)

Heard that the donation fee is being raised to $5000.00 - $2,000.00 than we planned on.... We shall see.....

Caillie's birthday party tonight & Lilys next week!! Caillie turns 8 & Lily 5. Thanking the Lord for these little girls - they are just precious!! We are truly blessed.
