Still waiting and wondering!!!

In the middle of all this waiting for the referral I have been having some fun. Last weekend I went to New York City with my friend Mandy. We stayed over night did a lot of shopping. we walked so much my hips were killing me the next day. We also went to see Mama Mia it was fun until the people next to us decided to be chatter boxes. we went to the M&M store. i bought my nephews cute little straws that have the M&m candy hanging off of them so I hope they like them. By walking around we found this cute breakfast place where I had the best french toast and fruit. it was nice just to have girl night out in new York. we plan to go again soon when it gets warmer so we can go to SOHO and do some more shopping. we are still waiting for a referral. In April it will be going on 6 months. Idon't know if its a good thing that I read other peoples blogs or not ,for some reason it makes me happy that some people already have their kids and on the other hand it makes me more worried between the 8 doctor medical and that maybe we will have to to the FBI clearances that now take 13 weeks. Everything is so unknown it just makes me nervous. So far our agency didn't tell us none of these things and its maybe because we don't have the referral yet. I think my husband will shoot them a quick e-mail just to see what is going on because everything I know is from all the blogs I have been reading. I pray to god that everything will work out. so until than we are still waiting.......

Do you know much about your agency? Do they usually take this long to get referrals? I don't know much about other agencies, but Beacon House was right on top of everything for us. I look forward to hearing you have a referral soon, friend.

I know it's hard but try not to worry too much in advance, it will drive you crazy. Just take one step at a time...Everything might be unknown to you but don't worry, a lot of us have been before you and can tell you that court, medicals etc. are not that bad and it's true the thought is worse than the reality. Take one day at a time, one step at a time...you'll get there in the end.

I was with Beacon also and great people. But it took us 8 months after hour HS to be approved to get our referral so you are still in time. I know it is very stressful as we were. I tis hard to wait. I have heard that recently the Russian change the medical and paretns need to hae it done in Moscow now. I am sure it will be all okay. I would not worry too much excpet ask your agency if they have any children they know coming on the international list soon. Beacon was great to let us know it will come... They just hav eto be careful as we all know the Russian have priority which happened to our first referral.. So stay positive. It will happen! We are the prove for you!
