Day 1

We did get a referral last night but we had to decline it. She was much too young. We are doing great though. It just didn't feel right and I know we made the right decision. We know that our daughter is out there we just have to find each other! Next chance is this Thursday evening and then not again until the end of October.

LID

We are official. We have a LID of 9-20-2011. The new referral list comes out this evening and we could get a call as late as 11:30 pm or we could not get a call at all! It is out of our hands now! I am not expecting a referral tonight but one can hope! Either way it feels amazing to finally be so close! Say a few prayers for us :)

Say a little prayer

Say a little prayer and cross your fingers.....we need our LID (log in date)to come in this week. The next batch of referrals (how you are matched with a child) probably will come out next Monday. We need our LID to be included in this group. I am not expecting a referral....but you never know :) the new referrals are issued the last Monday of each month, so, think of us at that time. I will probably be going crazy and driving everyone around me nuts!

DTC 9-16-2011

I logged into my email at work this morning just to check on the off chance that something happened. I was not holding up much hope as not much seems to go our way during this process.......well, we are moving forward. Our Dossier To Country date is official. Our paperwork left for China today. I actually started crying at work! I know, I do that all the time....not usually at work though. The next step is to receive a log in date from the CCAA, the agency responsible for adoptions in China. We should be all set by the time the next round of referrals comes out the end of September, beginning of October. I am not holding out much hope this round of referrals, but you never know!

Back from Chicago

Good news today. Our Dossier is back from Chicago and has been authenticated by the Chinese Consulate. It now gets sent to the Chinese Government and then we will get a log in date. Dossiers are sent to China every Friday so cross your fingers that ours gets sent out in this batch otherwise we will have to wait another week!
