2nd Acceptance Letter Approved!!! FINALLY

We just got word this morning that our 2nd Acceptance letter was finally processed, after 5 weeks of waiting, and our information has been sent to Beijing to be walked to CCAA to receive our Travel Notice. This process can take 2 - 4 weeks... yes possibly another month.  We will then have 10 - 14 days notice to travel, so we will not be leaving for China for another 4 - 6 weeks.  So it is now looking like we will be leaving as early as Nov. 25th (the day before Thanksgiving) to as late as December 16th.  If we leave on December 16th we will unfortunately be gone for Christmas.  The only positive to that date is that Alex will only miss 3 days of school since we will be traveling during Winter Recess.  It would be great if we did leave earlier though because then we could have Winter Recess to hang out and get to know our new family member without having Alex in school all day :)  But what will be will be and we will make due.

So the other good news that we have received is that our Contact in Yuoyang did receive Jordan's family album and he should be getting that any day.  Our Contact, Mike, mentioned that he will take pictures and a short video of him when he gets it.  I have been anxiously watching for this in my email since Thursday!  So much waiting.  We are moving forward though now... At least we are moving forward!
