Hurry Home Maddie!




It's official! Our adoption paperwork is logged-in, and we are eagerly awaiting our baby girl from China! With the way things are going right now, it's going to be a LONG time until she's home, but we are always keeping our fingers crossed that things will speed up. One of the benefits of this long wait is that it gives us some time to really prepare for her arrival, although since this is something Ryan and I have been talking about for a while, it seems like we have already been waiting for so long. At any rate, this next year's focus will be getting ourselves into a bigger house--we have very quickly grown out of our current home. Two dogs, two kids, two parents and 700 square feet is getting tight!

Our Dossier is on Its Way to China!



After 11 months and 5 days of paperchase, our Dossier is finally on it's way to China! This took about double the time I had anticipated, but it's finally happening! Soon we will get our Log In Date which will secure our spot in the L-O-N-G line. Anticipating a wait of four or more years, but really hoping the wait will be shorter. Above are some pictures of all our paperwork before it went to our adoption agency in Colorado. HHM!
