Isabella is coming home !!!

Finally I get to type those words. We got the call today that we have PINK. When you get your appointment to pick up your babies immigrant visa it is issued on a pink slip so adoptive parents usually call this step getting PINK.

Our appointment with the US Embassy is June 2nd at 7:45 am. We are so surprised because we thought we were still waiting on Isabella's new birth certificate, and then it's usually a week or so after that until she comes home.
Our agency called us today and said, "How would you like to go to Guatemala next week? You have pink!! " We were in total shock and numb with excitment.

We are leaving on May 31st and will be back on either June 4th or June 6th. After the visa appointment you have to go back on the next business day to pick up the visa. Because our appointment is on a Friday we may have to wait Monday to pick it up and then return home on Tuesday. Every now and then the Embassy is nice and will let you pick it up the same day and in that case we will come home on Sunday.

At this point though nothing really matters except that, Isabella will be in our arms forever in less than a week!!! We have been truly blessed and it's a miracle that the end of this process went by so quickly.

We'll be posting updates from Guatemala so check in with us!
