I800 Approval

So yesterday we received our I800 approval and that was followed by a call from our agency giving us our travel date! So the count down begins! In 2 1/2 weeks we will finally meet our little one!!!! Next step on this CRAZY journey is for me to get my Colombian visa which will be done on Friday. I'm still in shock its almost here and now I'm starting to get nervous about how the meeting will go. Well nothing else exciting for now so I guess my next update will be a day or so before we leave!

I800 on its way

So on the the 20th of April I sent off our I800 forms which is probably one of the most important documents in this process. This is the form that sets the date for the meeting of our little munchkin. Once this is approved and we receive the approval letter the representative in Colombia will then give us a travel date! To my surprise yesterday we received the receipt form that the USCIS office has recieved all documents and the I800 is being processed.  So we are getting much closer to that wonderful meeting date! In the mean time we have started to set up his room. Its not done yet but I just wanted to share what is done so far.
Its crazy because just a few months ago I had a room picked out for a baby girl. I forget that Gods plans are not always the same as ours. But he knows best and even though I have not met our son yet I wouldn't change any of it for the world. Anyway I still have these really amazing wall decals that I found on a website called ETSY.com that still need to go up on the wall and then the room should be complete!
