Re-Fingerprinted and Updated

We got our third set of fingerprints done today. We will have 4 when all is said and done. Since it has been a year since our last sets were done locally, we had to do them again to do a background check. This is to make sure that Craig and I have not gone on any crime sprees since the last check (we have not).

We also had a conference call with our social worker to update our homestudy since that has also been over a year ago. The call took 18 minutes so it was way less than I expected. This was mainly to make sure nothing major has changed since last year ( nothing has thankfully). I feel relieved to have both done with.

Our new estimated wait time is 8-11 months for a referral from right now. Our social worker said to go with the long estimate so that we may be happy if it is less. Was hoping for a referral in 2010 but it may well be 2011 for it to come.

So, we just keep moving forward. As we like to say around our house now, we are one day closer than yesterday to meeting Baby Porter!
