T-minus 9 days and I just found out that in our agency's last group to go to court 2 of the 3 families did not get through on the first attempt (which is not unusual, some cases take 3 or 4 tries before they get through for various reasons) However, it sounds like the agency will not get our embassy dates till we all are through. I think we are one of 3 families with court on June 12th so we are crossing our fingers we all get through on June 12th.
We got an update and 11 new photos. Her face has gotten fuller and she is looking much healthier. She is still teeny teeny tiny. She is 4.2 kg (which for those of you who don't remember metric from way back) is about 9.24 pounds (which I think is about what the boys were at 2 weeks old) Although for some perspective, D was only about 7.8 kg at 12 months so while "Baby X" (we don't have a name yet) is smaller, she is not worried panic mode small. She is smiling at the woman holding her and is reported to be interactive with caregivers. She reaches for objects and can sit with support, but not roll over. The doctor notes that now that she is eating again and gaining weight, they expect those delays to improve. Once we know our travel dates I will be setting up appointments with Early Intervention just to have everything all ready to help her get all the support she needs to catch up. But overall, it was a very positive update.
Please send prayers/good thoughts/good karma our way next Thursday- for all the families going through court.
