Pondering PINK


Well the last few days have been a whirlwind of positive things!

Last Friday, we received Max's birth certificate; yesterday we went to get his 'precioso' passport; and today we obtained our ORANGE slip, 2nd DNA test, visa pictures, and last MD physical before our visa appointment. Now all we have to do is wait for Max's 2nd DNA test to be processed and then we will have our PINK appointment (the PINK appointment is another term for the visa appointment with the US Embassy).

If all continues to go well, it is looking like we will be home by the very end of the month! We are very excited, but for now I am very exhausted and need to get some sleep before my mom and aunt arrive tomorrow to have a fun visit in Antigua before we all head home.

More updates to come!

You know you are not hip to the whole "pink thing" when you are wondering, "What? Max would like his room to be pink?? It's his new favorite color??" Then I had my aha moment... I can't believe I am going to see you SOON!! Love, Tia "enfermo" Pantelones xoxox
