Why is it that when you want something so bad, time seems to stand still? Last Saturday we met with our Social Worker to update our homestudy and she informed us that the last child that came home from Korea took 8 months from referral date. If that timeline remains that puts us closer to October to travel to get Ty...Why or why? We're really hoping for the orginial timeline of 4-6 months having us travel in July/August! Other than that news, our update was pretty painless. It was home study update 4 and dear God please make it our last!
The good news is that yesterday we got a new Well Baby Check Report and picture of Ty. OMG, he is so cute! He looks so different from his last pics. He has thinned out and has the cutest look on his face. We just wanted to reach through the computer and squeeze him! The picture was a pic of him and his Foster Mother. She is beautiful, ageless. She is a 68 year old woman who looks 50! What was really touching was that in front of him was all the stuff we sent him in his care package. It's so nice knowing he got these things and will now have pictures of us to look at. The Well Baby Check says that he is 8.3 kilograms, which is equilivant to 18.6 lbs. Looking at him you would never think he weighs 18.6 lbs., he looks so little!
Anyway, the rest of the report was good. He will be 8 months old on the 27th and is developmentally at the age of a 6 month old, that's expected with him being a preemie so no worries!
We truly wish we could post his pic. so you could see him...sorry you're just going to have to take our word that he is so adorable... truly a Ty,Ty, special guy! Libby calls him Ty, Ty, Super Guy...he's her super hero!
Awww, so cute! Sofie only weighs 23 lbs! I'm praying for you to have an earlier travel date also. This process is so painfully slow!
ReplyDeleteSo glad the report is good. Praying your timeline is short and this super specila guy can come home before we go back to work so i can come spend time with him. Happy Easter to all of you. HUGS
