It's OFFICIAL....

We are officially with CHINA baby! 

Yuppers....little girl under 3 years old, special needs (more than likely Cleft Lip & Palate).

Things are starting to take shape.  We are on our way to PRIDE training this weekend, one more thing to CHECK OFF our list!!!

Soon after this, our home study will start and should take around 4-6 weeks...

As for Russia....it became painfully clear that Russia just wasn't going to happen with our health goals not being met and more recently, not being able to contact the agency since October (2 emails and 4 phone calls and messages)!

And...do you want to hear some irony (or is it?)?

FOI (Family Outreach International is our agency) is the original agency we contacted in July 2010 when we were trying to decided on a country for international adoption....how COOL is that??? 

Obviously, there was a plan for us to be with China but some things had to 'pan' out before we locked in with China.

We are THRILLED!!!

Moving forward....
