Update

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

I've had my homestudy update and requested another Adam Walsh clearance. Once I get that, I can apply for fingerprints and an I171-H extension.

I need to bring my girls in person someplace to renew their passports so I'll do that Thursday since I have off of work. I tried bringing them to the post office a week ago Saturday, but there was a big sign that said they only do passports Monday-Friday from 9-3. Once we get all passports back, we'll apply for Visa's. I need to find a courier service for that. My agency does it but I think a courier service would be less expensive.

I ordered a camera package with a panda bear, letter, camera, candies, pictures of us, and a pillow with our pictures on it to be delivered to the orphanage in Shanghai. Hopefully it will find it's way to Amanda. I asked for them to see if they can get the camera back so we can get some updated pictures, but I'll just have to wait to see if they can. I used Blessed Kids for this.

Santa brought a couple gifts to our house for Amanda. Hopefully he brought some to her in Shanghai as well.

I'm moving into Dance production season, girl scout cookie season, and busy season (also known as mandatory 48 hour work weeks) in a couple weeks. So I'll be very busy. I'm sure the time will fly by and I'll be going crazy trying to get everything done.
