7 Months and 15 Days

That's the amount of time it took to get our paperwork collected, home study completed and approval from USCIS (171H). However, it all came together today and I'm thrilled to say that our dossier is officially on it's way to the agency!!!!!! Our agency will receive it tomorrow by noon and sometime within the next 3-4 weeks our paperwork will arrive in Ethiopia and we will officially be a waiting family for a baby girl.

YEAH!!!!!!
