Just starting

I am creating this as we begin our adventure to bring Chrislande home from Haiti. We have sent our paperwork down, been there since June 2007 after getting our paperwork all in line as fast as could be. We got our official referral on May 2007 for Chrislande, after seeing her on the COTP website in February. She will be joining a big brother Tyler and a big sister Kaylee. Tyler is our homegrown and Kaylee comes to us from South Korea. We know that we are in for a wait, just as we had a wait for Kaylee (18 months) so we are prepared for this. Right now they are getting Chrislandes paperwork matched up with ours and going thru first legal. I am hoping that we can get into IBSER sometime in August. We will see how that goes.

Hi Lori,
We are adopting Landie from COTP and I think we are on about the same timetable! Our dossier got down there at the end of June. Have you heard if you are in first legal yet? If so, did they tell you or did you have to ask? I am just wondering how quickly our paperwork gets submitted. Best of luck!! Maybe we will be picking our girls up at the same time :)
