FBI fingerprinting - the wait continues

Last Tuesday I called the FBI once again to verify that they received our prints.  We are finally in their system!  WHoo Hoo!  So they say they received it on 6/15/11 - 8 weeks from then will be August 10, 2011... so I expect to receive the letter sometime that week. (I hope).

The doctor's letter of good standing has been requested.. 2-3 weeks to get this letter.

We are still waiting on the documents from our homestudy agency as well.  They are in the process.

So it looks like everything is lined up to get here about the same time.

Then I will need to take the documents all to the courthouse to get court certified.

Then I will have to make a trip to Columbus to get it apostilled at the Secretary of State's office.. $10/document - this could be a really expensive trip....probably around $300... whew!  just for apostilles.  Hopefully our final apostilles...

So I've decided to do Olesya's room in butterflies.  I will take a picture when it is all done.  It is going to be adorable.  I hope she likes it.

Tatiana is suppose to call the orphanage and check up on Olesya.  I'm sure she is fine, but we are worried about her.  We are both barely able to focus on the day to day.  It feels like something is missing... it's Olesya - she is missing.

Audrelle is coming on Saturday (my niece who is 4).  She has been training Chloe not to jump.  It isn't working very well yet.. Maybe just a few more days of training and she will know not to jump on little girls.  She likes to follow Audrelle around the house... wherever Audrelle is - Chloe is.  It is cute.  I have been keeping a close eye, but I think Chloe will be fine with Olesya.  I'm just not sure what Olesya will think about Chloe.  I doubt if she has ever seen a dog.  We will see.

The waiting soon to be mommy of Olesya,
