Visas & a New Car Seat!

Monday morning Keith headed into DC to drop off all our paper work for all the visas we will be needing for our travels to China! We should have official visas all stamped within our passports by the end of this week! (another "to do" to check off my list)



and...



Also on Monday morning, I finally got around to ordering Benjamin's car seat! Just the though of having three little ones riding around with us is getting me very excited! Oh how I can't wait until it arrives!




Here is a photo of the exact one I ordered this morning from Walmart.com. At a price of under $44 and with a shipping fee of $.97 ~ I just could not pass it up! (plus it is another "to do" to check off my list)

Hope to be posting soon on our TA....

Article 5 (second LOA)


Finally, after what seemed like ~ forever ~ we received notice that our Article 5 has been picked up by our agency's rep in Guangzhou at the US Consulate and is being delivered to the CCAA in Beijing! Once the CCAA reviews all the information provided, they will than issue us TA (travel approval)!




Only a few more weeks until we know WHEN WE WILL BE LEAVING FOR CHINA!!!!!




Thinking ~ praying ~ that it will be the second week of June (if not sooner)....

Waiting...

As of Monday, we have been waiting one week for our Article 5 (second LOA) to arrive at our agency. When we received our NVC letter last Saturday, we had to wait until Monday to fax a copy of it to our agency ~ which we did! So as you can see, we are still waiting...

It is starting to look like we are traveling some time in June. Not sure when...but I will keep you all posted.

Next step after receiving our Article 5, we than wait for TA....
