Another Step......

The journey continues, but we have moved on to the last big step in the adoption!!! On Thursday, October 25, 2012 I sent of my Immigration paperwork.  I was told once I got that to them that things could move really fast!!! I thought to myself, " I wonder if their fast is the same thing as my fast." 
October 24th......Running around like a crazy person trying to get everything together for the immigration process, because I knew that on Thursday I would not have time to do any of the paperwork except for send it off.  Made multiple calls to the agency to make sure that I was doing it correct.  So at 6:00pm THE PAPERWORK WAS COMPLETED!!!

What this paperwork means is......Amayah can be scheduled for her embassy appointment in Congo, which the attorney will take her too.  I used to would have had to be there, but they changed it to where just the attorney could take the child.  After the embassy appointment then she will receive her VISA.  That means I will get to go and get her as soon as she receives her VISA!!! I cannot wait for that day to be here. 

She is 5 months old and she is changing all the time.  I can't believe how big she is getting.  The last report I got she was 14.7 lbs and 61 cm long.  So I have a niece that is 6 months old and she is a pound lighter but the same length, so that means Amayah is a little bigger than her and month younger!!:) 

I had my shower on Nov.4th and got lots of great things!  I am very appreciative of all the support from friends and family on this amazing journey. I hope you enjoy the new pics of Amayah!! :)
