Adoption Update!

I don't remember where I last left off, I think that it was our dossier had been sent to Russia for translation, well here's what has happened. As our paperwork was over in Russia we started talking about adopting 2 children. We thought, why not, we want more than one child and are so lucky to have this opportunity to give a child a great life why wait to become a family of 4. We also do not know what the future will hold for us as far as being able to conceive with fertility treatment, after our last failed IVF, our chances are much lower than we anticipated. So just as we were sending our agency an e-mail to ask questions about the process of adopting 2 children vs one, our coordinator told us she had a wonderful sibling group she would love to talk to us about, 2 biological brothers! At that moment, we new that this is a sign and these 2 boys are meant for us. They are 18 & 27 months and cute as can be. We are still waiting on their exact birth dates. Our coordinator was great and explained the process to us. So we have now signed some new paperwork and our dossier is now being sent back to Russia to be translated for us to be able to adopt these 2 wonderful boys. The region they are in is Smolensk, which is about a 4 hour drive from Moscow, which is great b/c we can get there by car and not have to take another flight, but we would of if that is what we had to do. Hopefully the region will not require any more additional paperwork and things will go smoothly. Our dossier should take about 2 weeks to be translated and then we should get our travel dates. SOOOOOOO we could be going over there as soon as the end of June, beginning of July to meet our boys and officially sign the paperwork in Russia, stating we accept the boys and want to adopt them. We know this is a huge step going from 0 to 2, but know we are up for it and can not even begin to put in to words what a dream come true this is for us. If all goes well we could have our boys home by the end of summer! Just in time for football season and getting them into their gator gear!! We will keep you posted as things progress.
