We have our LID!!
I just got off the phone with our agency and we have a Log In Date of April 16th for our dossier in Vietnam! It doesn't mean anything really....like it did with China... as far as a referral timeline. However, it does mean our dossier has gone through all the steps of approval by the US, our agency and the DIA in Vietnam and they are all stamped approved! Now our dossier has been sent to the officials in Dong Thap Province. This is a province in the Mekong Delta and interestingly enough it is famous for their red headed cranes which are very rare and Annslee's province in China is famous for the yellow crane. Our agency works with two provinces and they feel this is the best option for us at this time considering we are requesting an infant girl. If a child becomes available in HCMC (the other province they work in) then it will be moved. So now we are officially waiting for our referral. Our agency is not giving us any timeline at this point so we have no idea when it will happen. For now, I am just happy to be logged in and officially finished with any paperwork I need to provide.

Cool about the LID! any type of movement is good when it come to this process, IMO.
Thanks for the pic of Annslee walking her "dog"- I needed a cute pic to smile about today.

Of course, she'll love and hug and dote on her younger sister, (cough-cough) right?

Congratulations!!!! That's so exciting. Dong Thap is right next door to Vinh Long, where Sera is from! The delta area is very beautiful...I can't wait until it's your turn to experience it!!
Congratulations, that is such great news... nothing like those stamps of approval. Malia is ADORABLE. Gotta love those shades!

Cant wait to hear how your timeline plays out & you can call Kobi "beautiful" whenever you want... LOL! Thanks for the compliment:)
That is fantastic! Congratulations on completing your paperwork. I am looking forward seeing your newest daughter Amelia, as well as the continued updates of Annslee.
Take care,
