a big "thank you"

THANK YOU to everyone that has supported my insomnia by purchasing stuff from my cafepress site. You guys are awesome! : ) jjm

we're official!

We are now officially approved for adoption. Woo hooie! Now we will move on to the homestudy. According to the Dillon info "the homestudy process often takes about 90 days to complete". Looks like we're on hold for the next three months. We'll also be doing lots of fun things with CIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services), like applying for approval to bring a child into the country and driving to Fort Smith for fingerprinting. Fun. In any event, I'll keep everyone posted as this stage progresses.
