Karly is finally home! She did wonderful on the flights, she slept most of the time. We got to go to La Antigua, Guatemala this trip, and we are so glad that we got to experience some of Guatemala this time. Karly seems to like her big brothers, and Luke seems to be doing very well with her. Of course Drew is very excited to have his little sister home, he won't leave her alone!
Last night was a bit rough, because for the last 3 months Karly has been sleeping with her foster mom and she wasn't used to a crib anymore. It could've been worse! We still can't believe our baby girl is home!

We will be leaving tonight at 2am, so the next time anyone sees us our daughter will be home forever!!! We can't wait to get to Guatemala and see Karly. Please pray for a safe trip for us and for a smooth transition for Karly. Adios amigos!!

WE ARE PINK!!!! We finally know when we are going to get our little girl and when she'll be home forever! We're so excited!!! We leave in 6 DAYS!!! And I haven't packed a thing yet! We leave on Monday March 3rd early in the morning, and Karly will be brought to us later that day. Then our Embassy appointment is on Tues. March 4th at 7:15am. The next day our attorney will pick up Karly's VISA and we will fly home early on Thursday March 6th. We are still in shock!
The reason we got a faster appointment date is because I became concerned about Karly's one eye in the last couple sets of update pictures. It seemed to be turning in more than the other eye. I took her photos to a Pediatric eye dr and then to our Pediatrician and they both wrote letters yesterday stating that she should come home ASAP to be checked out. They don't really think it's anything major, but they want her to be checked out. It could be a "lazy eye" type thing, and maybe she'll wear a patch for awhile, but she'll fit right in here with Luke and his eye winking disorder! LOL!
Well, I have a ton of things to do and I still can't think straight, so goodbye for now!

Overnight Karly's results got to Memphis, TN. As of 5 am this morning they were in transit in TN. I don't know where they're going next, but hopefully somewhere to be put on a plane to Guatemala!

Karly's DNA results are finally on their way to the Embassy in Guatemala. I have the tracking number for the package and the estimated delivery date is Monday! You can believe that I will be stalking that package like a hawk! Hopefully we will get our e-pink on Wednesday and I'm hoping for an Embassy appointment date of 3/12.

We got word today that Karly's DNA sample just arrived at the Lab today. Let's hope they can process it quickly and get it back on its' way to Guatemala by the end of the week.
