April showers bring May baby!

Happy Spring to all!
Great news to report!!!
We have been told by our director Karen .....that we will be leaving as early as April 9th or the latest by April 15th..in any way by mid April. Dave and I will be traveling to "Petro" (Trip#1) and staying for at least 3 weeks. Kazakhstan has a mandatorty 14 day bonding time (daily visits..aka playdates) with our little one, then we apply to go to court and wait for a court date to grant us custody. There is another waiting period 2-4 weeks after that so, we will be coming back to Nantucket and wait to hear our agency when we can return (trip # 2) to fetch our little one to take home with us forever!!!!!
Our passports are in DC waiting for our Kazakhstan Visas. We are getting much closer now to start our Kazakhstan travel journey and becoming parents.
The cocus and daffys are just staring to come out and are enjoying the sunshine...spring is in the air!!!
Sending love to all from the island!

A little longer.....

Pree-vyet All!
Thought I would update you on the latest news....Dave and I went over to the Cape this past weekend and for a "Waiting Family Meeting" @ our "Good Hope Adoption " agency. Well ...we hope to be traveling some time in April not March. ( note: subject to change with out notice) We are hoping that the weather in April will be warmer and a bit easier to travel to Northern Kazakhstan I am planning on traveling with Mud Boots now rather than Snow Boots. In any way we are still very excited about our up and coming journey to meet our little one!!!!
Please stay posted.
Paka..Paka..
With love from Nantucket
