WERE HOME WITH OUR SON!!!!

Hi Everyone,
We are home with our son Jayden. He is such a joy to have. We are truely blessed. His big sister Hannah is so Happy that he is finally home. What fun they have together.
Everything went really well. Just need to catch up on the sleep. I'm going to start to post pictures from our trip. Guatemala was nice and warm. We stayed at the Tikal. We love that Hotel. The mall also has been remodeled. Very nice. I just cannot believe the Airport in Guatemala City is so very nice also. Last time I was there it was a mess. This time it was almost complete, very big and very nice. I will post more later.

Yesterday we recieved word that we were at the civil registery. This is where you get the BC.
I had heard also from our attorney that with the change in the government, (the new president) it will take up to 8 days to recieve the new BC. So we wait again.
We are happy to hear that we are moving forward.
Also we have not recieved any new pictures of Jayden since Nov. so if we get any soon, I will post them.

PGN Official Document

Hi Family and Friends....
On Wednesday we recieved our official PGN approval paper from our agency. This paper tell us that we are out of PGN. We have been waiting on this since Nov 14th when our agency told us we were approved. So now we wait for the birth cert, second DNA, Visa, and pink to travel. Looks like with the Holidays and all the days offices will be closed in Guatemala, Jayden should be home the middle or end of January. Jayden will turn 10 months on Dec. 15th. He will be home for his first birthday...Laurie
