UPDATE

Well our VISA's came today. Hopefully tomorrow we will have the announcement that our Travel Approval is here. ALso travel dates, it is getting closer. We have started to pack.

McKenna started first grade and seems to like it for the first three weeks of school her teacher is Mr. McCasland. After the first track break she may get a new teacher we will see.

I am feeling better and better each day.

UPDATE

TA"S are on their way here. Probably get here to the agency thursday or friday and we will have official travel dates early next week.

Update

Still no word on TA's.

Update

Well nothing new with the adoption still awaiting travel approval to come from CHina.



I am still recuperating and doing better everyday.

McKenna starts first grade in one week.

Update

Well on August 4 we received word that our acceptance letters had been sent back to China from this point 3-4 weeks to receive travel approval and then 2-4 weeks until travel. It at times seems so unreal. THe fed ex package with Marielle stuff came on August 2 and two hours later we sent back the acceptance package.

We received on August 6 or so the translated version of another form. Her name means Bright Happiness. We are leaning towards Marielle Ming Le.

August 5 back into hospital out on August 11. Had to have hysterectomy. Doing well.

Today is my official birthday. YEAH, I guess. I am feeling better everyday. I am hoping to be recuperated enough to get on the plane to china to pick up Marielle.

Acceptance Forms

Well we signed and sent back the forms. Oh I hope that this is HF will. SOmetimes I get nervous.

She is a deep sleeper and active when awake. In May she weighed 12.1 pounds. I hope when we get her home our family and especially McKenna stays together.

Fed eX

the fed ex package should arrive today.

We will finish the forms and return them to the agency and hopefully it won't be to long before Marielle is in our arms.

We say Jayne and Jacob yesterday it was really neat. She looks very good. Unless they change their mind they are naming their little girl Ellen. Melissa is engaged to someone named Ryan he has a three year old.
