Our Travel Approval has arrived!
I got a call from our agency a few minutes ago (as I was fighting with the FAX machine about a pandemic flu test alert - how ironic). They have two other families with Consulate Appointments (CA) on November 26 and are requesting our appointment be that date as well. She hopes to know back in a day or two if that is going to happen. The best part about that is we would not need to renew our USCIS paperwork that expires on December 8 - which would save us several hundred dollars. We'll be cutting it under the wire, but our agency firmly believes that is not a problem. IF WE CAN GET IN ON THE 26TH, (say an extra couple of prayers), we will fly out on November 14 and return on November 28. Somewhere between those dates, we'll finally meet Little Miss E.
OH GREAT - Now, we have to finalize her name!! The list is about a mile long of everything we need to do between now and then, but that is probably the most important. Second is winning the lottery so that we can afford to go. Oh and the boys need haircuts, we must get more film, order Alex some extra contact lenses, get the gifts for the nannies and all those folks, decide which clothes to pack for her........
Its finally becoming real and my feet have not touched the ground since I got the call!!
