Got more paperwork stuff back....

Nice surprise in the mail today. We got our FBI background checks apostilled and back from the US Department of State today. I expressed mailed it to the US Dep of State and included a self addressed envelope with postage. I got an email from them about 4 days after I mailed it saying they had received it. On their site they say it takes 15 days from receiving it to mailing it back to you. I got it back in about 6 days of receiving their email. NICE! Now the only thing we are waiting for is the most important document of all, our approval for the I800 (requesting our son by name to adopt). This is the document needed to get a court date, everything else we have done is for court. We should have Chris' employer's letter by the end of the week for our embassy appointment and then we are all done with this paperwork. As soon as I get the I800 approval letter I will take everything down to get apostilled and mailed to our agency to mail to Bulgaria. Then they have to translate everything for court. Praying we have court in May and be able to pick our son up in June. We are told second trip can be 3-5 months after trip 1. We visited February 12-19, so that means the earliest we could travel is end of May and the latest we could travel is July.
