The Court Date

Good News!!!!!! We have a court date. It is February 16th. This is the first hurdle we have to jump. At this hearing, they can request more information or perhaps order more counseling for the birth mother. After that, there is a mandatory 10 day waiting period. THEN, they schedule a date for the 1st Decree. This is a matter of getting all the parties together at the same time. Some people have gotten their 1st decree in 2 weeks. Some folks have been waiting on their first decree for 3 months. There is no predicting this kind of thing.

So keep your fingers crossed for a fast process so we can travel real soon!
