Our names are officially on the list!

As of Tuesday, April 21st our names officially went on the waiting list! I spoke with our case worker the other day and she said even though we may have a few paperwork changes/additions to make, she placed our name on the list Tuesday. Now we just wait and see what happens. They told us it would be a 6-9 month waiting period, so we would be expecting a referral anytime between October '09 and January '10. Once we get the referral it will still be several more months before we actually bring our baby home. 2 trips to Russia, some more paperwork, etc...

Jason & I were finally able to get away for a few days. We are down in Singer Island, FL right now. I'm sitting on a lazy boy listening to the ocean as I type this. So relaxing! I've attached a picture of the view from Grandma & Grandpa's balcony. No place better on Earth! Maybe next year we can come down and bring Baby Peterson with us!
