Onward and Forward

We received a letter from the US Consulate in Guangzhou, China that our Article 5 was picked up on Friday, July 20th and was delivered to the CCCWA today. Yay! It is the CCCWA who will then issue our Travel Approval. Once we get this approval, we can schedule our visa appointments with the Consulate and make travel plans! This is the last leg of the paperwork chase!

On that note, we had a crazy, but amazing week. We had wonderful visit from Uncle S. and his soon-to-be bride K. filled with lots of partying and visiting. The boys had Sports Camp. There were three birthdays in the family. And the weekend was spent painting Maisey's room. We are still finishing up (pictures will be coming soon), but how fun it is to finally be at this point. We have baby things back in our house! The boys' crib is back! We get to decorate a girl room! Mind you, I didn't go all pink or anything. But a little girly with a little Chinese flavor is definitely in order. I can't wait to have it all set up.
