God is good! I just got home and guess what I found in my mailbox? Yep... Our new I171H that we needed to show that our fingerprints had been updated. What does this mean? Well, it means there is NOTHING that will stop us from getting PINK next week!!! I e-mailed Lab Corp this morning and they sent a reply telling me to check with them Monday. The results should be sent out then. It is looking more and more like we will have an appointment the week of Oct.29- Nov.2. I am thinking it will be Oct.31 or Nov.2. We could be leaving next weekend!
I have a question that some of you may answer... I heard that the embassy is not doing appointments on Thursdays now. If this is true, then when do you pick up your visa if you have a Wednesday appointment?
Well, we will be spending our weekend watching LSU beat Auburn!!! :) and putting the finishing touches on Miss Bella's room. So, Sunday will be the unveiling and the long awaited pictures of the room. Stay tuned... next week is gonna be a GOOD one!!!!!!
Oh, tomorrow Bella turns 13 months old. It will be the LAST "birthday" she spends without us!

Hooray!!! Can't WAIT to see the room and more importantly to see Miss Bella in the new room. We are so excited for your family!!!!
Yea Amanda!!! I love seeing all the happy good things coming to your family now!! I'm thinking that even if they are not doing appointments you probably will still be able to pick up your visa because all the work is done. We didn't even have to go back to get ours. Our rep. picked it up. Otherwise you may just have to wait untill Monday.
Love you!!!
Great news!! Better start packing.

YES YES YES YES YES!!!! Girl, I am just so happy for you! Here's to a wonderful weekend getting ready for your baby girl! can't wait to see pics of their room. Oh, and BTW, this is the ONLY time you will hear me say "GEAUX TIGERS"! I hope you guys CREAM stinky ol' Auburn!!!!
We had our appt. this Wednesday and got our visa on Thursday. They don't issue visas on Fridays so that is why they don't schedule appts for Thursday. Can't wait to hear your good news!
I am typing this one handed because my other hand is holding Moses, God is so good!
Great news! I knew it had to be coming soon.
They do issue visas on Thursdays, so you would be able to come home on Friday if you have a Wed. appt.
Hoping and praying that you are on your way to my favorite place on earth by this time next week! :)
