We Are PA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As of today, we are pre-approved by the CCAA to adopt little sister. This is issued electronically after the CCAA Special Needs Department has reviewed and approved our EA. Now we wait on them to fully review our Dossier and application and then we will receive our RA (referral acceptance). It has taken 2 weeks and 1 day for the PA to arrive after our EA. Now the race is on to receive the RA. It is estimated to be between 1-3 months, but I'm thinking it will happen sooner. At least I am very hopeful of that. Our dossier was logged in on April 29, 2006, so hopefully it will move quicker since we have been waiting SO LONG. We still cannot post a picture of sweetie pie, but as soon as we get our RA, her face will be plastered on this blog:) After the RA, we are allowed to send her a care package. I have been sleeping with a stuffed baby Simba the last few days that we got at Animal Kingdom Disney World. They recommend doing that so it has your scent on it and then we will send it to her. I hope it has a good scent! We will also send her a blanket and a camera, as well as a picture of us. Bo is chomping at the bit to do that! (No, she won't be taking any pictures, that is for the nannies to hopefully take pictures of her for us.)

No other exciting news. I worked yesterday and I mean I worked! I was very tired and went straight to bed when I got home at 9:30. Today was errands, hair apt., getting ready for vacation. Just busy stuff.

Tomorrow we go get our Hepatitis A vaccines. Ashton is beside himself with excitement. He was just as excited yesterday when he applied for his passport. The sweet lady at the post office asked where he was going and he begrudgingly said "China". She asked him if he was excited and he said "not really". He's a lovely child.
