So, What's next?

Good question! We have filled out the paperwork needed for our Letter of Intent (or LOI) and it is on it's way to China. We now wait to get a pre-approval (PA), then a Letter of Acceptance (LOA), and finally our travel approval (TA). All of that takes anywhere from 3 to 6 months. I really, really, really, really hope that we are on the 3 month end- NOT the 6 month end. It has only been one week since we accepted Kate's referral and it already feels like a month. I must look at her picture 1,000 times a day. Brett understands very little but he asks about her all the time. I still can't tell you too many details, but I will tell you that she is only 8 months younger than Brett! Praying hard that they are going to love eachother and enjoy having a sibling so close in age to grow up with.
We are at the beach right now and loving every minute of it. Brett LOVES the beach- really, really loves it. The first thing he asks us every morning is when are we going to the beach. He told me, "Yeah- beach- I happy". Man I love that cute little guy!
I am working on the blog list right now so it will go private in the next few days.
I can't wait until I can post Kate's picture!
Thanks for being so excited with us.
