First authentication from Chinese consulate in Chicago

Texas certification

All but one of our Texas certifications cane ib today! Bret's employment statement was rejected because the notary didn't date it. Grr Oh well, all things in God's time. Now waiting for our first authentication documents from Chicago.  We are waiting on our I 800a to finish up and our trip to Houston after that comes in to authenticate all our Texas documents.
We are praying for our baby every day. Love her.

I 800 A

Bret mailed this beast of today. So happy! Now we just have to authenticate at the Chicago consulate, certify a bunch of Texas documents....authenticate those and the approved I 800 A, at the Houston consulate, all within six months of the first dated document...and we are good to go :)  How's that for a run-on sentence!? We are thinking a lot about you little girl! We all love you already!

First certified document

I was so elated when I received this in the mail. Our first certified document. One step closer!
