Since returning home from our first trip to Russia on April 3rd ... we have been busy collecting the first round of paperwork needed for the judge to give us a court date. All in all we had 41 items to gather and complete ... remember each document is then notarized, county sealed and the apostilled ... I think I've been all over this area for county seals and then off to Albany for the apostilles!
Good News ... documents are done and were sent to WHFC on Saturday! We've been told the judge is going to be leaving for vacation on June 26th and will be gone for all of July. Our goal right now is to be one of the first families he reviews when he returns in August. Hopefully, he will only need a few additional documents or updates and we will get a quick court date for late summer or early Fall!
In the meantime we are plugging away at getting the house ready both inside and out! We are just HAPPY to be done with the paperchase and all the doctor appointments we had to do for this round! I'm sure there will be more but at least we have a short break and hopefully we are one step closer to our court date and bringing the boys home!!!
Have a great summer!

Hi Christine,
Good for you guys & getting the paperwork done. I know when we get back we will be doing more paperwork as well.
YAH the paper work round 2 is done!! That is great one step closer to pick up your 2 adorable sons. Early Fall sounds great maybe the weather won't be to COLD. Beth
Yeah!! It's always a relief getting p/w out of your hands but hard 'cuz --- now the control is out of your hands, too!
Hang in there and we'll all hope that you hear something soon -- even if it's to re-do stuff. That atleast means he's looking at your p/w!
All the best,
Laura
P.S. I promise to e-mail you soon. Life is incredibly busy now with a 2-year old and I simply don't get to the computer as often (hence, my blog feels very neglected!!). Also, I deleted previous post due to typos...yes, I'm neurotic!
Good job on the paperwork and I hope you get the first review in August!
Great great news!!!
