We are now in the hands of the US Government

We were submitted yesterday (Tuesday) for PINK. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it.
There is some confusion as to when the Embassy will be open/closed to Americans and Guatemalans. So I emailed the Embassy this morning and I plan to call down there later today. Our attorney is suppose to go back to the Embassy tomorrow at 3:45pm (5:45 our time) and pick up any Pink slips that are waiting. We hope it is ours and Rebecca's.

It really looks like our appointment will be the 2nd week of April which is what I expected. I'm hoping that it will be the 9th or 10th so we can travel down to partake in the Easter festivities.

We will be staying at the Marriott again. The Pool and Restaurant are both open now.

Stay tuned for travel updates......

Wonderful news! Just maybe you will get lucky and will get your pink slip and travel in the next week or two. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Love,

I really hope you get your pink slip. We were submitted to the embassy on 2/22 and still haven't received it. I hope and pray that you can get your little one home soon.

Busy Busy Weekend..

Well Todd and I have had a very busy weekend. Ever since we found out that Meredith is here we've been going in overdrive. As you can see we finished up the nursery this weekend. We will put the changing table together sometime this week, the crib was challenge enough for one day. Oh and the border (that one piece deal didn't work too good Becky). Oh and Todd says if he sees one more thing Hello Kitty, he's going to hurl. hahaha But anyway the room is painted, the border hung, and the crib is put together. The only thing that's missing is Meredith!!! We haven't heard anything else since Tuesday, I'll try to get some more information this week, but it's doubtful that the agency will know anything new. They said we would get our next round of pictures in about 5 weeks.

We've made it past the 7 week mark....

how many more to go??? That's the million dollar question. We are just sitting and wondering when will we get out. We are still hoping and praying for a previo free stay in PGN. I find myself hitting the send/receive button on my email every couple of minutes, and ever time my cell phone rings my heart drops. This waiting is almost unbearable. But everyone tells me that NO news is GOOD news where PGN is concerned. On a down note, my friend Keely found out yesterday that she received a previo on Friday for something totally ridiculous. But thankfully she went right back in that day. As for our weekly update, it was the same as it has been for 7 weeks. We are still in PGN waiting for approval.
