Nothing...

No word yet as to whether we are even back into the PGN yet. With the release of more bad news from the adoption world in Guatemala, that things may be completely shutting down in January, the mood at our house can only be described as solemn and hopeful that we will be out of there soon. We were able to get all of our paperwork in to renew our I171-H this week so hopefully that won't hold any thing up. Now we wait and pray.

The repaired docs are in Guatemala...

Okay, so after spending a week and a half sitting on desks, Fedex got our docs back to Guatemala in less than 24 hours!!! Now they need to translate them and then we will be BACK in PGN!!! I am praying for a quick and positive "out" this time around! Onnolee gets cuter and prettier every month...

Hi Mom!!! Onnolee, 6 months old

This is TORTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Santa Fe held on to our documents for a WEEK before they even sent them to Phoenix...AAAARRRRGGGHGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So we are waiting even LONGER! I am SO FRUSTRATED I could SCREAM!!! They could have been back in Guatemala by now and they just sent them to Phoenix today...grrrrr... I am now planning to fly up to spend time with my dear mother and daughter in Salt Lake City. We must go SHOPPING... Hopefully in a few weeks we will know SOMETHING......

KICK-OUT

I just got off the phone with our co-ordinator. Our case has been kicked out of PGN for a typo on our homestudy. Now I have to try to get a hold of our local social worker to send an addendum, get the addendum notarized, certified and authenticated, express it to Guatemala, and wait. This really sucks...

6 months old

This is an older pic of Onnolee from our visit trip a couple of months ago. This is how I remember her. I am aching to hold her again. She was six months old on Saturday. Still no word from the PGN. Happy half-year birthday, Onnolee! We love you and miss you!!!
