Our passports arrived yesterday! One week exactly from when we applied. We are still waiting to hear from Bethany on the approval of our formal application.  Hopefully we will hear something this week.  Jason has his physical and blood tests next Saturday.  Each step brings us just a little closer to our new child! Although the process is long and obstacles are met along the way, I've decided it's better than the 9 months of puking that usually precedes a new child in our family!
