Geeked, Psyched, Stoked...

Whatever you want to call it... I'm getting excited!

Today I called the health department to check on our immunizations, we never went back for our 3rd shot. I found out we don't have to start over... we just need to get in for the last one.

I e-mailed immigration and played dumb. I told them we had our freebie and needed to renew, what do we do? They said I needed to send a request to renew our fingerprints within 30 days of them expiring and then send in our I600a 30 days before our I-171h expires. We let our fingerprints expire last time, I guess we won't do that now.

I actually read our Reality Check and With Eyes Wide Open a long time ago and never took the 'tests' I am going to be finishing those up in the next week.

Tomorrow night Jim and I are going to start making lists of stuff we need and what we need to begin looking into, like travel, packing lists etc. Talked about getting Chris his own digital camera for Christmas. He will be a wonderful camera man.

I'm thinking about car seats, strollers, high chairs.... cute baby clothes? (no wait I already have a closet full of those!)

I keep talking to Chris, how cool it would be to miss 2 weeks of school and keep his own blog. Then when their class is in computer's with Amiee she can have them all check him out on the Great Wall and with his sister!!

Yeah, the bricks are falling, the walls are coming down... I am starting to get excited!

P.S. Prayer request: I have 2 friends who are in different stages of domestic adoption they could use a few prayers about right now

The photo of Chris was taken just before we began our Journey to Hope, more than 3 years ago... this journey has been such an amazing test of faith for this young man... stay tuned for a similar pose on The Great Wall... almost 4 years later...
