More paperwork

It seems that the paperwork never ends. Thank god my husband is really good at it! It has been 15 days since we first laid eyes on Angelina. My husband carries her picture around and he even places one on the chair when we are eating. She feels so part of our lives already.

We are currently waiting for our fingerprinting appt. Because our process took so long we had redo and repay for several documents. As of now we hope to be traveling by May. We hope to be back for Angelina's 1st birthday party.

Here is the bio on Angelina:
*Chinese Name: Lou Fu Fang
*American Name: Angelina Lou LeMaire
*DOB: June 1, 2006
*As of November 2006 - she weighed 15 lbs and was 24.5 inches tall
*Angelina is from the Hunan Province, Loudi Social Welfare Institute in foster care. She has been in foster care from the first day she was found in front of the Loudi SWI.
*Hunan Province is in the southern part of China

Because of our long journey, I feel like we told the world about Angelina. We have had awesome support from family and friends throughout this incredible journey. We are so grateful for our supportive family and friends.

To all my internet friends, the caring, love and support has gotten us through some rough days!! Thank you all for being there for us.
