Adoption Update
We FINALLY completed our Citizenship forms (Part 1) and have couriered them over. We should have had this done ages ago but we just kept on procrastinating. Anyways, it's done and it was received on the morning of December 31st. Apparently the average wait time to hear back is approximately 11 weeks. Yikes, that's about 2.5 months! We also had to contact our social worker and get our homestudy updated. It wasn't too bad. We had to e-mail the details of the changes and on Monday I will need to call and schedule a home visit since we've moved. Too bad about the move, otherwise we could have just popped in for a quick visit/interview. Hopefully this time it won't be so painful. It worries me that the renovations haven't even begun yet. Mind you we hired a professional contractor that has given us a 5 week turnaround from start to finish. We've already had a designer come in and she came up with an amazing layout. It practically doubles the space, sunlight, etc. It's literally been one thing after another but so far everything is falling into place and we are taking each day as it comes. We've been through renovations before so we know it's not an easy road. Add to that a move, adoption, vehicle accident and it leaves you thinking, okay, what's next? It's always good to keep a sense of humour at times like this. We watched Planes, Trains and Automobiles (my favorite movie) and Rat Race the other night. Now that is good quality down time.
