The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!
The story so far: In Nov '02, we were accepted into a domestic infant adoption program. In Jan '03, we decided to switch to their Russia international adoption program. In Feb, we realized this wasn't the right program for us. We found a new homestudy agency, and a new adoption agency, Children's Hope International (CHI). In June, we switched homestudy agencies to Community Adoption Center (CAC). All of our paperwork was finished in August and in Sept our dossier was sent to Russia and on to the Tomsk region. We hope to get a referral sometime this winter and bring our daughter home before May. We hope to adopt a girl under 36 months. Below are daily updates, links, thoughts and tips I want to remember later.
