Fingerprints

Today, Bob and I went back to the USCIS to be re fingerprinted. It has been 15 months since the first time we did this. Surprisingly today it went very smoothly. We were in and out within 15 minutes. I think last time it took us over an hour and we were expecting it to be worse this time since our appt. was so much later in the day.

We are now hoping that we will travel before our 171 expires, which is in January. We are still hoping for an early November travel time, however it seems like the Waiting Child program is slowing done. There are many families on our agencies Waiting Child list serve who are 40+ days ahead of us and they are still waiting too. Everyone is keeping their fingers crossed that we will all hear some good news soon.

The wait is getting harder and harder to deal with. We haven't received any new updates and we probably won't until right before we travel. It just breaks our hearts that Addison is spending her days in the SWI instead of with us, her family.
