We're officially on the waitlist for a baby boy! Our dossier is on its way to the Department of State and the Ethiopian Embassy, then it will be sent to Ethiopia to be translated into Amharic. The average waiting time for a referral is 3-5 months, so we're hoping it will be before Christmas. At the time of referral, our adoption agency will give us all the info they have on our baby: photo, name, age, medical history, and anything else they may know.
Although we've heard the wait can be the hardest part emotionally, today we are just thrilled beyond belief that we're one step closer to meeting our son. I'm so glad we have football season (yay!) and the holidays to keep us occupied. Please keep praying for us!
