Huge Progress!

At last!  We received our certified copy of the homestudy and immediately went to our state capital to have our dossier authenticated.  Note: We were approved for two on our prior i800a (with Pat) and it hasn't expired yet, so we are able to skip that step and send an authenticated copy of our previous approval.

The Lanz kids at the Secretary of State office getting baby sister's papers done!

It took longer than expected to have our documents sealed, and then traffic (and snow!) made travel VERY slow on the way home.  I was very disappointed to not make it back in time to Fed Ex these tonight.


However, we are READY, and they will be on their way to our courier tomorrow.  Next stop will be at the Chinese Embassy in New York on Monday!!!  DTC is hopefully just a couple of weeks away!
