Number Nine

Since our last post we found that there had been a few errors in our dossier. Even though all the docs had been approved by both the state and the Vietnamese Embassy we had to redo a couple of items. Not a big deal, and we've corrected the errors. We have since found out that we are number nine for a little girl. We'll keep you up to date as we progress up the list! Love to all.

Dossier Log In

Yesterday we delivered our dossier to the agency in PA. The agency "logged" our dossier into the system which is a most important step. Once our dossier is logged in we are officially on the waiting list in Vietnam. It turns out we are number 11 in line for a little girl. The agency was expecting two referrals this week which would move us up to 9th in line. At this point the agency is suggesting we would most likely travel in May or June, which isn't ideal as it is very rainy in Vietnam during that time. I was hoping that we'd travel in March or April, but we'll travel when the agency tells us to travel! Things are unpredictable at best so there is no sense making any plans at this point. Based on this new information we would probably expect a referral for a child in March. The referral is the next big step, with nothing much happening between now and then. We'll let everyoneknow when we receive the referral information!
