WE ARE ON THE WAIT LIST AS OF 4/3/08!!!!!

We did it! We finished all our paperwork for the Dossier and just found out today that we are on the official waiting list for an infant!!! The wait is still 6-9 months, but we were told to expect more like 8-9 months. It may go up in the future due to an increase in the amount of applications, but we will just have to wait and see. After we get a referral, there is about a 10 week waiting period, and then we can travel to Ethiopia to get them. I am thinking that this time next year we will be either traveling or getting ready to travel.
There won't be too much to post from now on, but if anything new comes up, I will let everyone know.
Sigh.....no more paper shuffling. Now I can start catching up on my reading again. :)
I just started reading a really good book called "Notes from the Hyena's Belly". It was written by a man who grew up in Ethiopia, and it's all about his childhood and adolescence there. So far it is really interesting.
