Today we are finally....




It felt like it has been forever in the making and things took a little longer at the embassy than we were originally told, but I am SO excited to say that we are finally DTC TODAY via DHL!!! For those of you not familar with the lingo- this means Dossier to China and is huge! All of the paperwork is now out of the US and on its way to China, where once it arrives, it could take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to be logged in. Once logged in, the wait for the all important Letter of Approval- LOA starts. And that wait can take anywhere from 32 days to 150 days....that is why it is too early to tell when we will be traveling. Our best guess though is that travel will be between June- August.

Praying for a quick LID and LOA since we have been waiting 6 months plus for our daughter already due to having to go about things a bit backwards in the beginning because of needing a waiver from China.

We are so blessed and thrilled to be at this point- it is a really big deal!
