Lilypie Waiting to adopt Ticker

The wait continues

It's been 35 days since our dossier was sent to the Philippines by courier. We were really hoping that we would hear by now that we are approved to adopt by the Philippines. The wait is anywhere from 4-12 weeks to hear this news. We haven't been obsessing over not getting this news, but it's definitely something I think about once in a while during the week.

We heard from Hand in Hand that right now there is a huge international adoption conference going on in the Philippines right now. That means that representatives from EVERY international adoption agency in the world are meeting in the Philippines right now. That's a lot of people!!! So they let us know that since the Philippines adoption board is focusing on the conference right now, it will probably take longer for us to get approved.

So we wait...
