I800-A

Is all filled out!  Just got to put it in the mail and we are one step closer.  The form is not really too bad to complete thanks to great instructions from our adoption agency! I am so excited and nervous.  Excited to have the form complete and ready to be mailed but nervous that even though it has been proofed over like 100 times that something isn't correct.  It is such a big step in our adoption and as usual I want it to be perfect. 

In other happenings, we are enjoying our summer with weekend trips to Smith Mountain Lake and family picnics.  We have had some scorcher days this year and anytime spent at SML is wonderful.  We again planted a garden which is doing really well and our chickens are laying fairly well considering the heat.  We are trying to stay busy with lots of projects and chores. 

Adoption is full of lots of waiting and as the Army says..."Hurry up and wait"

  2. Yay! I am so excited for you. What a big step. Your dossier will be in before you know it. One suggestion for you. Since your homestudy has to be apostilled in NC and your home state you may want to go ahead and send it to NC for the apostille now. That way when you have your I-800A approval and are ready to have everything apostilled in your home state the homestudies will be ready as well and you won't have to then wait for it to come back from NC.
