Just a little update! Today we received our hard copies of our updated homestudy from our social worker so I will be mailing that, along with other paperwork, to the USCIS ( U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services) office. Because our fingerprints haven't expired from when they were taken for Asher's adoption, they will be able to be refreshed instead of having to travel to Indy to get new ones done. We will then wait for approval to come back. When we have that, we will have all neccessary paperwork to update our dossier! We will just need to go to Indy for the stamps/seal from the Secretary of State office and then we will mail the documents to the Chinese Consulate in Chicago for their stamps/seal. After that, they are off to China! I can't believe how much faster this dossier process is with a reuse instead of starting from scratch!
We are so blessed and excited to be Hannah's parents. We've gotten her room (she will share with Avery) together and we've been buying clothes and things for her. Yesterday I layed out one of my favorite outfits we've gotten and just imagined her in it. I can't believe we will be meeting her in 6 months or less!!
As always, thank you so much for your continued support through prayers, donations, and encouragement. This is truly a village thing and we wouldn't be able to do it without you. Love you all!
