What am I doing?

No news is good news, right?

Not a thing has happened since the last post.  I figure it will be this way for quite some time.  We're waiting for our copy of the homestudy so we can apply for the I-800A (application for determination of suitability to adopt a child from a convention country.)  Once that is sent off, we had some little things to do while we wait on a match.  Rob has to get a passport and do any "do-overs" that come up.  
Then, when we're matched, we have the foreign costs--placement fee and visa issuance = $3,800.  After that, I think we wait some more.  Once they give us the go ahead, we'll travel to Thailand for 10-14 days.  We'll have meetings, appointments and a little down time. That will be an additional $4,000.  
Once our little on gets home, we'll have post placement visits with the social worker every couple of months for six months.  $900.

For some reason, it seems very "do-able."

Blessings,
Kelsey
