Well, first and foremost, we have to submit a "Letter of Intent" to China- this just basically says yes we want her, and outlines our plan to be able to care for her. That is submitted, notarized, translated to Chinese and sent to China. After that we will wait for our formal "Letter of Acceptance" from China. There is lots of other paperwork to do also, regarding travel. We also found out that our fingerprints will be expiring on February 22, 2010, so we have to make our third trip to Charlotte to be re-fingerprinted. We submitted that request today- nothing like waiting until the last minute- right? That expiration date had somehow slipped by me. Anyway, last but certainly not least, she has a name. If you have not figured out by now, we plan to call her Autumn.

ReplyDeleteGrandma Sheron also said she likes the name Autumn....and that she cannot wait to see her
ReplyDeleteMike picked *Autumn* because that is our favorite time of year; Autumn in the mountains is absolutely spectacular, and we were also married during that time of year. So, Autumn it is. Now what will be her middle name?? Still thinking about that one.........

ReplyDeleteI don't need to spend it......Andrea is doing a great job of it herself! The Sheron is getting ready to come out in me before long.
ReplyDeleteOh,please don't let the Sheron come out in you. It will all be okay. It's just money....haha. You can't take it with you so you might as well spend on that little girl:)
