Introduction

We'll be using this site to update family and friends about the status of our Vietnam adoption. We started the adoption process in June and our paperwork has just gone to the Vietnamese embassy in Washington DC for legalization. We are hearing that the embassy is a bit backed up on the paperwork side of things so it may be several weeks before our documents are returned to us even though we paid for them to be expedited. At this point, we believe that we'll have our paperwork to Vietnam by the end of December, possibly have a referral by the end of February and travel at the end of April. This is all supposition at this point, international adoption being what it is. But we will continue to post changes and updates as they happen. Thanks for all the well wishes from our family and friends!
