Waiting,waiting and more waiting!

No news yet...I don't even know if the judge is even looking at all our paperwork. I know that they got the papers and they were getting translated and re-notorized. We are getting our homestudy updated because it expires in Sepetember for Russian Adoptions. I just want to go already especially when I went on FRUA and read another russian child abuse story. I think I better just stop reading all of this. It's like I wanna know and be informed but than I read the blogs and FRUA and than I get even more nervous and stressed that things will go wrong. God,give us the strenght to make it through all of this. This is just so so hard and it feels lkie its getting harder.Sorry about my whining I am just totally down after reading the story on FRUA.I just don't understand why people do such things.....and I don't think I'll ever will. I miss my baby girl so much...

I think it is normal you have no news yet. In Europe July and Specially August are the months people are in vacations specially with administration. I am sure you will hear something soon by the end of the month or early September. Hang it there and yes don't read anything anymore you will make your self crazy!!! The internet can be good at that. Instead read happy story! it will come!!!!! Instead relax and enjoy your life with your husband as a couple before becoming parents.

Believe me we can relate! The waiting is no fun especially when you have to update documents. Hoping you guys get your court date soon! I personally had to avoid the 'noise' in the adoption forums or I would've gone crazy bananas these past months waiting for our court date! Hang in there your time is coming.

I agree with everyone else. Don't read the stuff. When you were sending me links and stories, I could not tell Kelly because she would have been so nervous. I completely understand where you are coming from but sometimes too much knowledge can be a bad thing.

Your day will come. And when it does the waiting will seem like it never happened. It is amazing how much our trips don;t even come into conversations any more because Katerina is home. It will be the same for you guys soon.

Do NOT read that stuff! It's going to do nothing but make you worry...easier said than done, I know.

Hang in there...I hope you hear something re: court very soon. I can't wait to see pictures of your little girl (and your little girl at home with you!)!

From experience, September through early December are really really really busy times for Russian Adoption. Not much ever happens in August! then, the next slow time is about Christmas time for almost a month, then super busy again through June! Stay away from FRUA. Always negative! Think of all of the joyful situations with all things normal and wonderful going on. . .I think the Russian government realizes this too. . .: )

Just wanted to say thanks for the comment on my blog and that I think about you guys all of the time and can't wait until you get a court date (well, actually, until you have your girl HOME with you, where she belongs).

Hang in there. Hope you had a good labor day.

I've been reading those boards too and to be honest they were making me nervous as well. We're registered in Vlad and Moscow and waiting for the call anyday for a referral. Hope to meet some of you! I'm new to the scene!
